* 03/23/90 v2.0e
* - Allan Bjorklund's tweaks: (allanb@us.cc.umich.edu)
* I've also added another switch to the program for ASCII->EBCDIC
* conversion. If your wondering why I would do such a thing, it
* is because I manage two archives sites. One on the SUN I'm working on
* now (terminator) and one on an IBM 3090-600E (um{ub}mts.cc.umich.edu).
* After I had gotten the code for the ascii->ebcdic working, I rearranged
* the defines so the for people not using ebcdic on their system could
* use it to convert 0x0D to 0x20. I find it real annoying to see ^M
* at the end of the lines of text while in vi. The option can be invoked
* with -a.
*
* Toad Hall Notes:
* Alan's changes include a new cmdline "-a" flag, a new "ascebc.c" file,
* and a new "Makefile". Define "EBCDIC" to enable the ebcdic conversion.
* (And I'd be REAL careful if I were you about just which files you
* used that "-a" switch for CR/LF -> LF conversion in a Unix system.)
*
* Re other portability problems, turns out the problem is in the memcpy()
* routines (along with general confusion about other compile defines.
* We'll have a separate doc ref how to compile on different systems.
