Wrap a string or text

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
$| = 1;

my $long_text = 
qq~----+----1----+----2----+----3abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ~;
   $long_text .= qq~more and more text here~;

&mylog( msg => $long_text, wrap => 30 );

sub mylog (%) {
	my %args = @_;

	$args{'wrap'} = 70 if $args{'wrap'} < 1;

	my $len = length($args{'msg'});

	my $i = 0;
	while($len > $args{'wrap'}) {
		print "->\t", substr($args{'msg'}, $i, $args{'wrap'}), "\n";
		$len -= $args{'wrap'};
		$i += $args{'wrap'};
	}
	print "->\t", substr($args{'msg'}, $i), "\n";
}

Output

# ./test4.pl
->      ----+----1----+----2----+----3
->      abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyABCDE
->      FGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZmore and
->      more text here
