I'd like to know if there is module for following:

Yes, Perl6::Form.  It's a Perl 5 implementation of Perl 6's formats.

        11111111112
12345678901234567890
=== OUT ===
| This is just     |
| small sentence   |
| about nothing.   |
=== OUT ===

So, I'd like to define "|" as start and as end, word-wrapped text,
and length of line is lets say "20" chars.

You could use Perl 5's formats, but they're ugly to work with. Perl6::Form presents them in a simpler and better fashion.

  use Perl6::Form;

  print form
    "| {[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[[} |",
       $string
  ;

does what you want.  See the module's documentation for details.

You'll have to download the module from CPAN, since I highly doubt you already have it.
