Summary: Various subroutines to format text
Description:
The format routine will format under all circumstances even if the width
isn't enough to contain the longest words. Text::Wrap will die under
these circumstances, although I am told this is fixed. If columns is
set to a small number and words are longer than that and the leading
'whitespace' than there will be a single word on each line. This will
let you make a simple word list which could be indented or right
aligned. There is a chance for croaking if you try to subvert the
module. If you don't pass in text then the internal text is worked on,
though not modfied. Text::Format is meant for more powerful text
formatting than what Text::Wrap allows.
