Make "def width" a private API; expose isWidthKnown instead (#257)
* Make "def width" a private API; expose isWidthKnown instead Resolves #256. Since width was used to determine whether getWidth would succeed, I added def isWidthKnown: Boolean but another option would be to expose something like def widthOption: Option[Int] ...thoughts? * Document getWidth/isWidthKnown * Add widthOption for more idiomatic Scala manipulation of widths
