If you've ever used ED and have gotten a "File contains binary" error, then
this file is for you. This is a rewrite of the VERY old EDible program that
is on GEnie. I didn't have the source code so it's been rewritten from scratch.
It will remove CR/LFs from files as most text editors only need LFs. It
also weeds out most control characters and changes TABs into 8 spaces (cheap
method but works ok). It also has a BACKSPACE handler that is useful for
capturing an online session on a BBS where you backspaced as it will delete
from the file what was deleted on your screen!
This is my first C program I've ever written and the source code is included.
I find it very useful myself and use it all the time!
