Description
I posted a comment in #243 but am not sure that will be seen since that issue is closed. I have
% docformatter --version
docformatter 1.7.5
and the fix from that issue appears to apply only to the first line and not to the description lines that follow, e.g.
% cat foo.py
def f():
"""
Here is a sufficiently long docstring first line with a ``word`` wrapped in backticks which will be wrapped as expected.
Here is a sufficiently long docstring description with a ``word`` wrapped in backticks which will not be wrapped as expected.
"""
pass
% docformatter foo.py
% cat foo.py
def f():
"""
Here is a sufficiently long docstring first line with a ``word`` wrapped in backticks which will
be wrapped as expected.
Here is a sufficiently long docstring description with a ``word`` wrapped in backticks which will not be wrapped as expected.
"""
pass
Is this intended / am I doing it wrong?
Here's my config block in pyproject.toml:
[tool.docformatter]
black = true
in-place = true
make-summary-multi-line = true
pre-summary-newline = true
recursive = true
wrap-descriptions = 100
wrap-summaries = 100
Thanks in advance for any guidance, and thanks in general for this great tool!

Research direction
Reproduce the report with the shown foo.py and pyproject.toml configuration, then run docformatter 1.7.5 or the current version. Trace how description lines containing double backticks are wrapped; done means those lines are formatted consistently with the first docstring line without breaking the backtick markup.
