Using get_height_rect without an existing console

[FractalWire]

So, I'm having a case where I'd like to use get_height_rect without an existing console, or at least, with a console of (width=0, height=0).
This console is basically use to hold the content of a print_box function, and that's it. This is a console dedicated to the content of a tooltip with variable value.

But if I want to use print_box, I'd need to know and set the height of the console before using the print_box function. Get_height_rect would be perfect here but if we use it on a Console(0,0), the only value we'd get is 0.

Any Idea how I could work around that ? I could implement my own print_box function in python, but it would not be as efficient as print_box I guess.

I'll go ahead and write a function which doesn't require a console.

Python's textwrap module could be used to replace libtcod's text wrapper if you ever needed to.
