{textformat}

{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
