- This program will search through a file and remove all instances of a
- particular character or optionally replace it with another. The main reason
- for writing this program is because of another which did exactly the same,
- except that it was very slow (even on my 060) and also to learn how to use
- ReadArgs(). My program is many times faster as it is coded in assembler.
- The main use is for stripping PC return chrs from files as some files
- originating from PC have both types. On my 060-50mhz it processes files at
- a rate of around 3mb per second.
