NAME
App::TextWrapUtils - Utilities related to text wrapping
VERSION
This document describes version 0.007 of App::TextWrapUtils (from Perl
distribution App-TextWrapUtils), released on 2023-04-13.
DESCRIPTION
This distributions provides the following command-line utilities:
* nowrap
* nowrap-clipboard
* textunwrap
* textunwrap-clipboard
* textwrap
* textwrap-clipboard
Keywords: fold.
FUNCTIONS
textunwrap
Usage:
textunwrap(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta]
Unwrap (unfold) multiline paragraphs to single-line ones.
This is a shortcut for:
% textwrap -w 999999
This function is not exported.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
* backend => *perl::modname* (default: "Text::ANSI::Util")
(No description)
* filename => *filename* (default: "-")
Use dash ("-") to read from stdin.
Returns an enveloped result (an array).
First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status
code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second
element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something
like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual
result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error
response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is
called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra
information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional
metadata.
Return value: (any)
textunwrap_clipboard
Usage:
textunwrap_clipboard(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta]
Unwrap (unfold) multiline paragraphs in clipboard to single-line ones.
This is shortcut for something like:
% clipget | textunwrap ... | clipadd
where clipget and clipadd are utilities to get text from clipboard and
set text of clipboard, respectively.
This function is not exported.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
* backend => *perl::modname* (default: "Text::ANSI::Util")
(No description)
* clipboard_manager => *str*
Explicitly set clipboard manager to use.
The default, when left undef, is to detect what clipboard manager is
running.
* tee => *bool*
If set to true, will also print result to STDOUT.
Returns an enveloped result (an array).
First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status
code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second
element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something

metadata.
Return value: (any)

Paragraphs are separated with two or more blank lines.
This function is not exported.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):

(No description)
* filename => *filename* (default: "-")
Use dash ("-") to read from stdin.
* width => *posint* (default: 80)
(No description)

CONTRIBUTING
To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull
requests on GitHub.
Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You
can simply modify the code, then test via:
% prove -l
If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally
on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla,
Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR,
Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two
other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps
required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
