The purpose of this program is to strip out the binary coding of program or
data files. The resulting file should just contain all text found in the
original file.
This program uses some specific functions to separate the text from the
coding. Because this program does not know exactly it actually does, it will
do some mistakes. The functions will reduce these mistakes to a minimum.
