Hi Patrick,

Have you considered making withAutoFlush() return the PrintWriter itself, allowing fluent code snippets like the following? _ _PrintWriter writer = new PrintWriter(new File("path/to/file.txt"),_ _StandardCharsets.UTF8).withAutoFlush();_ _

Good point. I taught about it, but it somehow got lost on the way of re-wiring the constructors... :-)

Just updated the webrev
