== Entab and Detab ==
This archive contains four files in addition to this one:
1. Entab - a program to replace runs of spaces in a file with
tab characters.
2. Detab - a program to expand tab characters in a file to
an equivalent number of spaces.
3. Entab.c - "C" source for Entab.
4. Detab.c - "C" source for Detab.
Usage:
Entab infile outfile
and
Detab infile outfile
Both programs use tab stops every eight columns. You can use Detab to
send files to your printer so that everything lines up correctly (that's
the reason I wrote it). My printer (or PRT:, I'm not sure which)
doesn't agree with anything else as to where tab stops are; Detab let's
me (and you) overcome the problem thusly:
Detab infile par:
or
Detab infile prt:
Entab will often make text files smaller, and makes it easier to edit
files when you use editors such as EDT and microEMACS.
Both programs were compiled with Manx Aztec C version 3.4a -
cc Detab.c cc Entab.c
ln -lc Detab.o ln -lc Detab.o
