Given a line with or without tabs in it, unexpand adds tabs +when it can save bytes by doing so, like the unexpand -a command. + +Text::Wrap::wrap() is a very simple paragraph formatter. It formats a single +paragraph at a time by breaking lines at word boundaries. Indentation is +controlled for the first line ($initial_tab) and all subsequent lines +($subsequent_tab) independently. Please note: $initial_tab and $subsequent_tab +are the literal strings that will be used: it is unlikely you would want to +pass in a number. |
