COPYDESC version 1.01 Copyright (C) 1992 by Jim Robeson
11/11/92
Function:
Read a PCBoard DIR LIST file (arg-1),
and copy it to a file (arg-2),
changing all multi-line descriptions to "long lines".
with the output position of the '|' set in arg-3,
and the starting position of the text set in arg-4.
note: requirment: 1 < arg-3 < arg-4 <= 34
Other uses:
None.
Execution:
Run from command line or .BAT:
COPYDESC drv:\path\in-file-name drv:\path\out-file-name |pos txtpos
If run without arguments, a bit of help appears.
To test:
See the file TESTID.BAT, it is set up to read DIR.IN and create
DIR.OUT, with the '|' character in column 2 and the secondary
descriptions starting in column 5.
