def text_wrapper(text, char_limit):
    # Initialize a list to hold the wrapped text
    wrapped_text = []
    
    # Split the original text into words
    words = text.split()
    
    # Initialize a temporary string to build the current line
    current_line = ""
    
    for word in words:
        # Check if adding the next word exceeds the character limit
        if len(current_line) + len(word) + 1 > char_limit:
            # If it does, append the current line to the list and start a new
line
            wrapped_text.append(current_line.strip())
            current_line = word  # Start a new line with the current word
        else:
            # Otherwise, add the word to the current line
            current_line += " " + word
    
    # Append any remaining text as the last line
    if current_line:
        wrapped_text.append(current_line.strip())
    
    return wrapped_text

# Example usage
long_string = "This is an example of a long string that needs to be wrapped
according to a specified character limit without breaking any words."
char_limit = 30
wrapped_result = text_wrapper(long_string, char_limit)

# Print the wrapped result
for line in wrapped_result:
    print(f'"{line}"')
