{textformat}
is a
block function
used to format text. It basically cleans up spaces and special characters,
and formats paragraphs by wrapping at a boundary and indenting lines.
You can set the parameters explicitly, or use a preset style. Currently “email” is the only available style.
Attribute Name | Type | Required | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
style | string | No | n/a | Preset style |
indent | number | No | 0 | The number of chars to indent every line |
indent_first | number | No | 0 | The number of chars to indent the first line |
indent_char | string | No | (single space) | The character (or string of chars) to indent with |
wrap | number | No | 80 | How many characters to wrap each line to |
wrap_char | string | No | \n | The character (or string of chars) to break each line with |
wrap_cut | boolean | No | FALSE |
If TRUE , wrap will break the line at the exact
character instead of at a word boundary |
assign | string | No | n/a | The template variable the output will be assigned to |
