- Text file conversion utility.
- Copyright 1989, 1993 John Winters
-
- This is a really simple utility which I originally wrote when the only means
- of getting files on and off MS-DOS discs (which I do quite a lot) was getfile
- and putfile. These worked, but didn't do any conversion on text files.
-
- Then along came !PCDir, which did a much better job, and automatically
- converts text files as they are copied. My utility fell into disuse.
-
- Now I have Risc OS 3.10, which can read MS-DOS diskettes directly. BUT,
- we're back to problems with text files. Thus I've resurrected my utility,
- re-worked it to use my window manager interface library, and here it is.
-
- To convert files, simply drag them onto the program icon. Text files will
- be changed to DOS text format and stamped as type DOS. DOS files will be
- processed the other way. Non-text files will be ruined! The time when
- this is most use is if you have a large directory of source files (as I often
- have). You can just select them all, drag them to the icon and wait.
-
- I retain copyright in this program, but you may use it without charge, and
- you may distribute it freely provided the entire package is distributed
- intact. I accept no responsibility for data loss caused by the use of this
- program.
-
- Sorry about that.
