The module interface is compatible with formatters like HTML::FormatText, but all parsing etc is done by zen.

As of zen version 0.2.3 there is no right margin option.

output_charset
As of zen version 0.2.3 the input charset is always latin-1 and output is always latin-1. Entities in the input seem to be truncated to 8-bits for the output.
