Hi,

find attached a patch which avoids translator to manually format string
with "\n" characters.

In pod documentation of namecheck, there is a space character at each
beginning of line. po4a interprets these lines as "no-wrap" string and
translator have to manually add "\n" to format the string. The patch
removes all spaces at the beginning of each line, so strings are not
considered as "np-wrap" string and translator haven't to manually add
"\n" to format string.

Best regards
Florentin Duneau

 =head1 ABOUT
 
-  This is a simple tool to automate the testing of project
- names at the most common Open Source / Free Software hosting
- environments.
-
-  Each new project requires a name, and those names are ideally
- unique.  To come up with names is hard, and testing to ensure
- they're not already in use is time-consuming - unless you have
- a tool such as this one.
