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:
$center(15 hello there) returns " hello there"
$[15]center(15 hello there) returns " hello there "
