Template::Plugin::Wrap − Plugin interface to Text::Wrap
[% USE wrap %]
# call wrap subroutine
[% wrap(mytext, width, initial_tab, subsequent_tab) %]
# or use wrap FILTER
[% mytext FILTER wrap(width, initital_tab, subsequent_tab)
%]
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.
