%CO:A,12,72%%H1%%H2%FILTERS FOR THE Z88


%JL%These programs add, delete or alter special characters in Z88 text 
files. They do all replacements wit M/L code, so they are very fast.

%JR%1) FADDER adds linefeeds after every carriage return, as required for 
%JL%uploads to most systems (this one, Compuserve and GEnie to name three). 
%JR%It will first test to see if there are any LF's currently in the file. 
%JL%If so, it will abort -- on the assumption that it has already been 
subjected to this process.

%JL%Note that a linefeed remover is not needed.  Loading a file into 
Pipedream and saving it back will automatically remove all LF's

%JR%2) DETAB replaces all TAB's [CHR$(9)] in the file with a single 
%JL%character of your choice.  If you respond to the replacement character 
%JR%prompt with by hitting ENTER, they will be deleted and the space closed 
%JL%up.  Often you will want to replace with a space.  Or you can use some 
%JR%special character like a # so you can see where the were -- and then 
use ^BRP in Pipedream to replace the #'s with spaces or whatever.

%JR%Why filter TAB's?  Sometimes you will get a Text file you do not want 
%JR%to be "columned" in Pipedream, but does have TAB's in it.  This program 
%JL%gives you a tool to deal with that situation, assuming you use it with 
some forethought.

%JR%DETAB.BAS & FADDER.BAS are binary; get them with Z88COM or Z-Term and 
%JL%xmodem download.  DETAB.CLI & FADDER.CLI are the corresponding ASCII 
%JR%versions; you can use an ASCII download and EXecute then from the 
Filer.
