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).

        [% tt_start_tag %] USE wrap [% tt_end_tag %]

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

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

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.

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

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

Output:

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

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