Text::Tabs(3pm)	       Perl Programmers Reference Guide	       Text::Tabs(3pm)

NAME
       Text::Tabs -- expand and unexpand tabs per the unix expand(1) and unex‐
       pand(1)

SYNOPSIS
	 use Text::Tabs;

	 $tabstop = 4;
	 @lines_without_tabs = expand(@lines_with_tabs);
	 @lines_with_tabs = unexpand(@lines_without_tabs);

DESCRIPTION
       Text::Tabs does about what the unix utilities expand(1) and unexpand(1)
       do.  Given a line with tabs in it, expand will replace the tabs with
       the appropriate number of spaces.  Given a line with or without tabs in
       it, unexpand will add tabs when it can save bytes by doing so.  Invisi‐
       ble compression with plain ascii!

BUGS
       expand doesn't handle newlines very quickly -- do not feed it an entire
       document in one string.	Instead feed it an array of lines.
