Text::Wrapper - Simple word wrapping routine require Text::Wrapper; $wrapper = Text::Wrapper->new(columns => 60, body_start => ' '); print $wrapper->wrap($text); Text::Wrapper provides simple word wrapping. It breaks long lines, but does not alter spacing or remove existing line breaks. If you're looking for more sophisticated text formatting, try the Text::Format module. Reasons to use Text::Wrapper instead of Text::Format: Text::Wrapper is significantly smaller. It does not alter existing whitespace or combine short lines. It only breaks long lines. Again, if Text::Wrapper doesn't meet your needs, try Text::Format.

Methods
Constructs a new Text::Wrapper object. The options are specified by key and value. The keys are: body_start The text that begins the second and following lines of a paragraph. (Default '') columns The number of columns to use. This includes any text in body_start or par_start. (Default 70) par_start The text that begins the first line of each paragraph. (Default '') If $value is supplied, sets the option and returns the previous value. If omitted, just returns the current value. Returns a word wrapped copy of $text. The original is not altered. Does not handle tabs (they're treated just like spaces). Does not break words that can't fit on one line. Christopher J. Madsen <chris_madsen@geocities.com> Hey!
