=head1 NAME
Text::Wrap - line wrapping to form simple paragraphs
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use Text::Wrap
print wrap($initial_tab, $subsequent_tab, @text);
use Text::Wrap qw(wrap $columns);
$columns = 132;
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Text::Wrap::wrap() is a very simple paragraph formatter. It formats a
single paragraph at a time by breaking lines at word boundries.
Indentation is controlled for the first line ($initial_tab) and
all subsquent lines ($subsequent_tab) independently. $Text::Wrap::columns
should be set to the full width of your output device.
=head1 EXAMPLE
print wrap("\t","","This is a bit of text that forms
a normal book-style paragraph");
=head1 BUGS
It's not clear what the correct behavior should be when Wrap() is
presented with a word that is longer than a line. The previous
behavior was to die. Now the word is split at line-length.

print fill($initial_tab, $subsequent_tab, @text);
print fill("", "", `cat book`);
Text::Wrap::fill() is a simple multi-paragraph formatter. It formats
each paragraph separately and then joins them together when it's done. It
will destory any whitespace in the original text. It breaks text into
paragraphs by looking for whitespace after a newline. In other respects
it acts like wrap().
# Tim Pierce did a faster version of this:
sub fill
{
my ($ip, $xp, @raw) = @_;
my @para;
my $pp;
for $pp (split(/\n\s+/, join("\n",@raw))) {
$pp =~ s/\s+/ /g;
my $x = wrap($ip, $xp, $pp);
push(@para, $x);
}
# if paragraph_indent is the same as line_indent,
# separate paragraphs with blank lines
return join ($ip eq $xp ? "\n\n" : "\n", @para);
}
