- Document with !Filter
-
- !Filter is a small utility that allows you to strip (say "filter") bytes
- from files.
-
- To start !Filter, double-click on its icon in a filer-window. When
- loaded, !Filter installs itself on the iconbar.
-
- To filter some bytes from a file, drag the icon of that file onto the
- !Filter-icon (the one on the iconbar!). !Filter will present you a tiny
- window in which you can choose bytes by clicking on the appropriate
- icons. Each byte can be marked with either:
-
- - The 'filter out' flag. Which means the byte will be filtered out.
- - The 'replace' flag. Which means the byte can be replaced by another
- byte.
-
- When you've set the 'replace' flag for a certain byte, you can choose
- another byte (which substitutes the first) in the same manner as you
- choose the first. (Just have a go with !Filter and you'll see it's all
- much easier than it sounds!).
-
- Note that bytes that aren't filtered out or replaced by another byte are
- merely 'replaced by themselves'.
-
- When you're ready to filter out the selected bytes, click on the 'GO'
- icon! When you want to abort the operation when the !Filter-window is
- shown, just click on the window's 'Close' icon!

- users, but please don't modify the files in the !Filter directory!
-
- Have much fun filtering your files...
