+=head1 NAME
+
+Text::Tabs -- expand and unexpand tabs per the unix expand(1) and unexpand(1)
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+use Text::Tabs;
+
+$tabstop = 4;
+@lines_without_tabs = expand(@lines_with_tabs);
+@lines_with_tabs = unexpand(@lines_without_tabs);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Text::Tabs does about what the unix utilities expand(1) and unexpand(1)
+do.  Given a line with tabs in it, expand will replace the tabs with
+the appropriate number of spaces.  Given a line with or without tabs in
+it, unexpand will add tabs when it can save bytes by doing so.  Invisible
+compression with plain ascii!
+
+=head1 BUGS
+
+expand doesn't handle newlines very quickly -- do not feed it an
+entire document in one string.  Instead feed it an array of lines.
