SignWriting Image Server Beta 5

[Adam Frost]

So I finally got to getting my hands on SWIS beta 5. (I think it was  
called beta 5b which is probably the update that you mentioned  
earlier.) And I tried out the column.php script, and it works great  
with short strings. I am sure that you have already done coding for  
this, but how do I make it so that there is more than one column for  
longer text? I would like to just feed the bsw string into something  
and get columns much like the SignPuddle Reader does.
