Does this really need a dedicated program? Can't you achieve the same
thing with a perl or awk one-liner? Such as:
perl -ne 'print "$1 " if(m/^\s*(.*)\s*$/)' < input
The need for a dedicated program to do this escapes me... and this is
not in debian so you will find a slightly more uphill fight to get it
accepted. The fact that the manpage demonstrates it in the context of
bulk emailing does not shed a particularly good light on it.
