>>> DR.FUNKEY's FILE UTILITIES <<< Free use PD software, no strings attached, no liabilities accepted. From David Wesson, Marketing Division, Newcastle Polytechnic MKU2@UK.AC.NEWCASTLE-POLY.VAXA This collection of file utilities uses similar command line syntax as STRIPPER, and each makes a backup of the original file called filename.OLD Each is self-documenting by typing the program name. FILEUTL1.ZIP contains: STRIPPER strips columns, extra spaces or blank lines in a file. Syntax: STRIPPER [d:]filename [option] where filename = original file [drive optional] option = B for strip BLANK LINES S for strip EXTRA SPACES C #1 #2 for stripping COLUMNS starting in column #1 and ending in #2. If #1 = #2 or #2 is omitted then only one column is stripped. SHIFTER converts Uppercase and Lowercase in a file, leaving quotes intact. SCRAMBLE scrambles ASCII files for file security. FILEUTL2.ZIP contains: ADDNUMBER adds or removes linenumbers from files. CLEANER cleans non-ASCII, upper ASCII and NULL characters from a file. TABIT replaces spaces with TABs in a file and vice versa. FASCII replaces ASCII codes in a file. FREPLACE replaces or deletes strings in a file.
