StripPS v1.0 24 July 1991 Windows utility for stripping ^D and other unwanted characters from PostScript files. Copyright (c) Andrew Fountain 1991 This program may be freely distributed. Function: StripPS removes any control-D characters from the start and end of the file. Some Unix print spoolers have trouble if there is anything other than %!PS on the first line, so the comments on the rest of the line are removed. Some programs put CR's without LF's into the PostScript. This can also cause trouble in UNIX, so LF's are added to isolated CR's. However, if the file contains binary information such as 8-bit fonts, then this insertion of LF's is supressed since it might foul up the binary. The program reports exactly what it has done. Usage: Can be run interactively or from the command line: stripps [ [ ] ] If only one filename is supplied, or the two are the same, then the result is put back in the original file. If no filenames are supplied then the program is run interactively and the user is prompted for source and destination files. The default destination is the same as the source. Version 1.0 of this program requires the Windows common library WINCOM.DLL to be present on the path.
