SYNOPSIS

Top Close Open
[% USE wrap %]

# call wrap subroutine
[% wrap(mytext, width, initial_tab,  subsequent_tab) %]

# or use wrap FILTER
[% mytext FILTER wrap(width, initital_tab, subsequent_tab) %]

DESCRIPTION

Top Close Open

This plugin provides an interface to the Text::Wrap module which provides simple paragraph formatting.

It defines a wrap subroutine which can be called, passing the input text and further optional parameters to specify the page width (default: 72), and tab characters for the first and subsequent lines (no defaults).

[% USE wrap %]

[% text = BLOCK %]
First, attach the transmutex multiplier to the cross-wired 
quantum homogeniser.
[% END %]

[% wrap(text, 40, '* ', '  ') %]

Output:

* First, attach the transmutex
  multiplier to the cross-wired quantum
  homogeniser.

It also registers a wrap filter which accepts the same three optional arguments but takes the input text directly via the filter input.

Example 1:

[% FILTER bullet = wrap(40, '* ', '  ') -%]
First, attach the transmutex multiplier to the cross-wired quantum
homogeniser.
[%- END %]

Output:

* First, attach the transmutex
  multiplier to the cross-wired quantum
  homogeniser.

Example 2:

[% FILTER bullet -%]
Then remodulate the shield to match the harmonic frequency, taking 
care to correct the phase difference.
[% END %]

Output:

* Then remodulate the shield to match
  the harmonic frequency, taking 
  care to correct the phase difference.
