NAME

       insert_brackets - add delimiters before/after text

SYNOPSIS

       insert_brackets delimiter1 delimiter2

DESCRIPTION

       insert_brackets  is  a filter that adds the specified delimiters around
       the text sent through it. It reads  text  from  stdin  and  writes  the
       result  to  stdout.  The  delimiters  can  be arbitrary characters, but
       things like { }, ( ), etc. are most common.

       Please note that insert_brackets is intended  mainly  to  be  run  from
       XView’s text menu. It is used in the default text_extras_menu.
