- I've sent Itamar, for possible uploading to NB archives, a new utility
- to produce files suitable for e-mail, EM-CLEAN.RUN. I'd be glad to
- send it to anybody who would like to try it out before it is available
- in a public depository (XXE format, about 10 K).
-
- The program is based on Michael Shalev's EMAIL.RUN and Allan Needell's
- revised version of that, NB4EMAIL.RUN, and written with a lot of help
- from Allan. It uses NB's REVIEW to produce the basic file, then
- removes formatting deltas and several other offending characters from
- the file. It then invokes an external program (included in the
- package) to remove those ASCII 0 characters that REVIEW, for one
- reason or another, inserts in its output.
-
- The present program does NOT treat high bit ASCII
- characters. It does, however, allow the use of many
- formatting features, such as indentation (here) or tabs
- (below).(1)
