✨ NAME ✨

Text::ASCIITable::Wrap — literally just here to wrap your text 💖

Okay bestie, so this is Text::...::Wrap(3pm) from the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, and it's the little module that makes sure your text behaves. Slay.

🌸 SHORT DESCRIPTION 🌸

It makes sure a text never gets wider than the width you specified, using wordwrap. That's it, that's the whole job, and it does it beautifully 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

  use Text::ASCIITable::Wrap qw{ wrap };
  print wrap('This is a long line which will be cut down to several lines',10);

Look at her. Iconic. You import wrap, you hand her a long string and a number, she hands you back something tidy. No cap. ✨

🦋 FUNCTIONS 🦋

wrap($text,$width[,$nostrict]) (exportable)

She wraps your $text at the $width you asked for. That's the main character job right there.

Now, unless you set the $nostrict parameter, she will cut a word down if that word is wider than $width — so if a single word is just too long to fit, she's not gonna let it ruin the whole vibe, she'll chop it. 😭 (That's the strict behaviour, and it's the default, so if you don't pass $nostrict you're getting the chopping.)

Also — good news — she supports text with linebreaks too. 🫶
