perl module to formating plaintext

Back to search · Project homepage

Description

The form() subroutine may be exported from the module. It takes a series of format (or "picture") strings followed by replacement values, interpolates those values into each picture string, and returns the result. The effect is similar to the inbuilt perl format mechanism, although the field specification syntax is simpler and some of the formatting behaviour is more sophisticated.
