Thanks for text-reform

Thanks to text-reform I was able to do some pretty mystical
columnization for my little application, sls[1]

Aside from text-reform, I haven't seen anything which could handle
multiple columns of text in a useful way.  I was thinking to implement
it all myself, but was really pleased to be able to get this
implementation working.

I also combined it with term/ansicolor[2] to have (optionally)
coloured and columnized output.  Wooh!

Issues installing text-reform

I seem to be unable to install this application.  Unfortunately, I
don't know enough to understand what's going on here.  It just sounds
like there is no documentation, and everything is failing because of a
dependancy on it.
