STRIPPER is a set of file manipulation utilities which:
Strips blank lines from an ASCII file, defined as a line
with only one or more spaces, a carriage return or a line feed.
Strips extra spaces from an ASCII file, defined as any two
consecutive spaces (chr$(32)). If a line contains only spaces,
there will be one space remaining on the line. Indentations
at the beginning of lines made of spaces, not Tab indents, will
be condensed to one space. All spaces at the end of lines will
be deleted.
Strip columns from all lines in an ASCII file. One or more
consecutive columns can be specified.
HOW TO USE STRIPPER
Type STRIPPER for syntax for bypassing opening menu.
Type STRIPPER [d:]filename for menu of options and prompts
This program creates a backup of the original file called filename.OLD
so you can safely experiment or screw up.
