+# $EPIC: center.txt,v 1.2 2006/07/17 19:41:50 sthalik Exp $
+======Synopsis:======
+$__center__(<width> <text>)
+======Technical:======
+This function returns the input text right-justified in a buffer that is
+precisely (** ((width - strlen(text)) / 2) + strlen(text)** ) characters
+wide.  The width must be given, there is no default.
+======Practical:======
+This function returns the given text, padded on the left such that it
+will appear to be "centered" in the width given.  The right side is not
+padded, only the left.  To force padding on both sides, you must use the
+width qualifier $[]var.
+======Returns:======
+Input text centered in given width.
+======Examples:======
+<file>
+$center(15 hello there)               returns "  hello there"
+$[15]center(15 hello there)           returns "  hello there  "
+</file>
