Text centering

Hello, people,

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data:

I have to make a tool that is centering the given text by the screen width or given parameter.

I have no idea how to write this script. Can anyone make it for me ir at least help?

2. Relevant commands, code, scripts, algorithms:

None

3. The attempts at a solution (include all code and scripts):

None

4. Complete Name of School (University), City (State), Country, Name of Professor, and Course Number (Link to Course):

Vilnius University, Vilnius, Lithuania, A. Mita�iūnas, 2nd course

It's not a serious task, it is worth just 0,5 of 10. Of course, if I get the code, I would analyse it all and learn every single symbol meaning. But I don't even know how to start writing the code. There was only one practise lecture these year and the lecturer didn't really tought us anything. And there he gave us the task.
Please, help Smilie

pod::text::color

Pod::Text::Color(3)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				       Pod::Text::Color(3)

NAME

       Pod::Text::Color - Convert POD data to formatted color ASCII text

SYNOPSIS

	   use Pod::Text::Color;
	   my $parser = Pod::Text::Color->new (sentence => 0, width => 78);

	   # Read POD from STDIN and write to STDOUT.
	   $parser->parse_from_filehandle;

	   # Read POD from file.pod and write to file.txt.
	   $parser->parse_from_file ('file.pod', 'file.txt');

DESCRIPTION

       Pod::Text::Color is a simple subclass of Pod::Text that highlights output text using ANSI color escape sequences.  Apart from the color, it
       in all ways functions like Pod::Text.  See Pod::Text for details and available options.

       Term::ANSIColor is used to get colors and therefore must be installed to use this module.

BUGS

       This is just a basic proof of concept.  It should be seriously expanded to support configurable coloration via options passed to the
       constructor, and pod2text should be taught about those.

SEE ALSO

       Pod::Text, Pod::Simple

       The current version of this module is always available from its web site at <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/podlators/>.  It is also
       part of the Perl core distribution as of 5.6.0.
