PS: To help clarify what I am talking about I enclose below an except of the output of this tool (being used for versioning, error-flagging and linebreak recovery) ===== got to going away so much, too, and locking me in. Once he locked me in and was gone three days. It was dreadful lonesome. I judged he had got { drowned, | drownded, } and I wasn't ever going to get out any more. I was scared. I made up my mind I would fix up some way to leave there. I had tried to get out of that cabin many a time, but I couldn't find no way. There { warn't | wam't } a window to it big enough for a dog to get through. I couldn't get up the chimbly; it was too narrow. The door was thick, solid oak slabs. Pap was pretty careful not to leave a knife or anything in the cabin when he was away; I reckon I had { hunted | himted } the place over as much as a { hundred | himdred } times; well, I was most all the time at it, because it was about the only way to put in the time. But this time I found something at { last ; | last; } I found an old rusty wood-saw { without | v/ithout } any handle; it was laid in between a rafter and the clapboards of the roof. I greased it up and went to work. There was an old horse-blanket nailed against the logs at the far end of the cabin behind the table, to keep the wind from blowing through the chinks and putting the candle out. I got under the table and raised the blanket, and went to work to { saw | sav/ } a section of the big bottom log { out - big | out--big } enough to let me through. Well, it was a good long job, but I was getting { towards | toward } the end of it when I heard pap's gun in the woods. I got rid of the signs of my work, and dropped the blanket and hid my saw, and pretty soon pap come in. ===== One input file has line breaks that look like this: .it. I was all over welts.
