+.SH NAME
+Text::Tabs \- expand and unexpand tabs like unix expand(1) and unexpand(1)
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
+.Vb 1
+\& use Text::Tabs;
+\&
+\& $tabstop = 4; # default = 8
+\& @lines_without_tabs = expand(@lines_with_tabs);
+\& @lines_with_tabs = unexpand(@lines_without_tabs);
+.Ve
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+Text::Tabs does most of what the unix utilities \fBexpand\fR\|(1) and \fBunexpand\fR\|(1)
+do. Given a line with tabs in it, \f(CW\*(C`expand\*(C'\fR replaces those tabs with
+the appropriate number of spaces. Given a line with or without tabs in
+it, \f(CW\*(C`unexpand\*(C'\fR adds tabs when it can save bytes by doing so,
+like the \f(CW\*(C`unexpand \-a\*(C'\fR command.
+.PP
+Unlike the old unix utilities, this module correctly accounts for
+any Unicode combining characters (such as diacriticals) that may occur
+in each line for both expansion and unexpansion. These are overstrike
+characters that do not increment the logical position. Make sure
+you have the appropriate Unicode settings enabled.
+.SH EXPORTS
+.IX Header "EXPORTS"
+The following are exported:
+.IP expand 4
+.IX Item "expand"
+.PD 0
+.IP unexpand 4
+.IX Item "unexpand"
+.ie n .IP $tabstop 4
+.el .IP \f(CW$tabstop\fR 4
+.IX Item "$tabstop"
+.PD
+The \f(CW$tabstop\fR variable controls how many column positions apart each
+tabstop is. The default is 8.
+.Sp
+Please note that \f(CWlocal($tabstop)\fR doesn't do the right thing and if you want
+to use \f(CW\*(C`local\*(C'\fR to override \f(CW$tabstop\fR, you need to use
+\&\f(CWlocal($Text::Tabs::tabstop)\fR.
+.SH EXAMPLE
+.IX Header "EXAMPLE"

+Instead of the shell's \f(CW\*(C`expand\*(C'\fR command, use:

+Instead of the shell's \f(CW\*(C`unexpand \-a\*(C'\fR command, use:

+.Ve
+.SH BUGS
+.IX Header "BUGS"
+Text::Tabs handles only tabs (\f(CW"\et"\fR) and combining characters (\f(CW\*(C`/\epM/\*(C'\fR). It doesn't
+count backwards for backspaces (\f(CW"\et"\fR), omit other non-printing control characters (\f(CW\*(C`/\epC/\*(C'\fR),
+or otherwise deal with any other zero\-, half\-, and full-width characters.
