.IX Title "Text::Tabs 3"
.TH Text::Tabs 3 "2002-11-24" "perl v5.8.0" "Perl Programmers Reference Guide"
.SH "NAME"
Text::Tabs \-\- expand and unexpand tabs per the unix expand(1) and unexpand(1)
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
.Vb 1
\&  use Text::Tabs;
.Ve
.PP
.Vb 3
\&  $tabstop = 4;
\&  @lines_without_tabs = expand(@lines_with_tabs);
\&  @lines_with_tabs = unexpand(@lines_without_tabs);
.Ve
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
Text::Tabs does about what the unix utilities \fIexpand\fR\|(1) and \fIunexpand\fR\|(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.  Invisible
compression with plain ascii!
.SH "BUGS"
.IX Header "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.
