I'm very glad (though I certainly wasn't fishing for compliments).

If there are cases where it could do the Thing Righter you should let me know.
The current ToDo list includes:
* better control of renumbering
* width=>N option
* Unix<->DOS<->Mac EOL conversions
* clever 8->7 bit mapping of special characters
* user-configurable abbreviation and stop lists
* honour POD
* auto-detect-and-ignore Perl
* auto-detect-and-perltidy Perl
* fix unsatifactory handling of multi-letter plus period bullets
(especially were its the last word of a sentence like
this.)
* handle mail headers and sigs (/^-- $.*/sm) nicely
* locale-sensitivity
* avoid rivers in justified text
* configurable spacing after punctuation
* auto-detect and preserve columns
* better handling of hyphens
but I'd be glad to know of any other cases where the magic is less than
perfect.
