Do you mean read from stdin, transform, then write to stdout? That is
exactly what the original program did. All I did was put a wrapper
around that so it could be called as a library and avoid all that
overhead.

Tim Daly sent the original code for texbreak to the axiom-developer list here:

Perhaps you can use it exactly in it's original form?
