The gtk 2 version of Terminator will not get this, as it is a function of the libvte library, and they will not backport that to the now defunct gtk2 version of the library. There is however a gtk3 port of Terminator that already supports text reflow. It just takes a bit more effort to install. This link: http://gnometerminator.blogspot.co.uk/2015/09/so-you-want-to-try-terminator-gtk3.html will at least guide you, even if it is not 100% correct for your system.

Can you help with this problem?
