- DESCRIPTION
- ~~~~~~~~~~~
- FBBSCONV takes a multi-line files.bbs description, and converts it to a one
- line description, which will be correctly word-wrapped by RemoteAccess and FFG.
-
- INSTRUCTIONS

- Move this into the directory where your 'messed-up' files.*
- description files are.

- Run it.
-
- The first question asks if you have a separator character on lines 2 onward.
- Answer yes or no.
-
- Example:
-
- THISFILE.ZIP blah blah blah blah blah
- | alskjdlaksdjlaksdjlskjd
- | aslkdjalskdjlaskdjldkjlkj
-
- THATFILE.ARJ a;lsdk;alskda;lsdk;lkd;lkd
- │ ask;ldjlsakjdlkjd
- │ aslkdjlsakdjlsakdjlkj
-
- Answer Yes if your description looks like one of the above. The "|" or "│"
- characters need to be stripped out.
-
- The second question asks whether or not you want to remove hyphenation.
- Answer yes or no.

-
- OTHRFILE.LZH This is the descrip-

- them do, then answer no.
