( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Hello. Not really a question, more so just getting your input. Not sure if there is a better name; Section Dividers, Comments Divider, Section Break, and I am sure there are others. I couldn't seem to find any common industry name.

Usually I do this to put in easy to find visual section breaks in code:

#################### # Name or Description of Code Section ####################

Part of my issue is that when I do this, and then use Perltidy, it changes the indent of the middle line only to match the indent of the section, so they come out looking like this:

#################### # Name or Description of Code Section ####################

There may be some switch in Perltidy so that it doesn't do the indent in the middle, I haven't found an answer yet. Is there a way that you do Section Dividers differently, that doesn't do this? Just curious if others do anything like this in Perl, and what you find works best for you.

Thank you.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
