README for Text-FixedWidth-Helper
Preparation and verification of fixed-width data are often part of software
development projects. Because fixed-width data is more difficult for humans
to visually decode than character-delimited data, it is often difficult to
construct and/or verify small sample files. This library provides assistance
with that task.
This library assumes that the user of a program can type a plain-text file in
a simple format and present it, perhaps via a GUI interface, to a Perl program
using the library.
