Opiton **-w** takes width number to fold. Unlike original fold(1) command, multiple numbers can be specified like: ansifold -w 3,1,3,1,2 Negative number fields are discarded. $ LANG=C date | ansifold -w 3,-1,3,-1,2 Wed Dec 19 Single field is used repeatedly for the same line, but multiple fields are not. Put comma at the end to discard the rest: ansifold -w 80, Number description is handled by [Getopt::EX::Numbers](https://metacpan.org/pod/Getopt::EX::Numbers) module, and consists of `start`, `end`, `step` and `length` elements. For example, ansifold -w 2:10:2 produces output like this: AA BBBB CCCCCC DDDDDDDD EEEEEEEEEE Each folded strings are separated by newline. Use `--separate` option to set the separator string, and use `-n` to set it empty. # SEE ALSO [github](https://github.com/kaz-utashiro/ansifold) [github](https://github.com/kaz-utashiro/Text-ANSI-Fold) [Getopt::EX::Numbers](https://metacpan.org/pod/Getopt::EX::Numbers) # LICENSE Copyright (C) 2018- Kazumasa Utashiro This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself. # AUTHOR Kazumasa Utashiro
