for the chinese sentences are composed of uninterrupted words/ characters, there is no space bar between the words/ characters.

Belatedly: this is because WordGrinder's internal data storage model assumes words are separated by spaces, and it can only wrap between words... which is rather eurocentric but this program did start life as a quick hack for me.

This actually causes problems in English too with very long words not wrapping properly, so I'd like to fix it properly, but it's going to be tough. That assumption is built in at the very bottom. I'll think about it, but I can't promise anything soon.
