I will figure it out later, i need it in my app, try saving to a field on the user is typing, seems very simple. when whatever input is not empty.  
You might find writing a really long string with airdev widget it wont break-word  
this should be helpful.

> This works well for multiple lines width: 260px; word-wrap: break-word; This is only really good for single line: width: 260px; white-space: nowrap; overflow: hidden; text-overflow: ellipsis;

also when you add the same message twice in a row can be funny, so reset input and focus again  
if you want messages with website links check this, regex isnt suited for email
