If you are using Perl 5.004, you may have problems with Text::Wrap.
(Yeesh, this module changes more than it should...) I've included
a diff for the Text::Wrap (version 97.011701) that is shipped with
5.004_04; the concept is simple enough that even older Perls can
take advantage of this silly little patch; if there is a "sub fill"
in the documentation for the module, copy it to a more useful
section of that file. If not, just take "sub fill" wholesale from
the patch. Oh, and consider upgrading to 5.005_03 or later.
Please. You'll like it, I promise.
