break_long_quotes.pl   [plain text]


#!/usr/bin/perl -w

# Break long quoted strings in perl code into smaller pieces
# This version only breaks at blanks.  See sub break_at_blanks to
# customize.
#
# usage:
# break_long_quotes.pl -ln myfile.pl >myfile.new
#
# where n specifies the maximum quote length.

# NOTES:
# 1. Use with caution - has not been extensively tested
#
# 2. The output is not beautified so that you can use diff to see what
# changed.  If all is ok, run the output through perltidy to clean it up.
#
# 3. This version only breaks single-line quotes contained within
# either single or double quotes.
