Subject: Special version of filter program
If you have been using a program to save incoming ASCII text
from your modem, you have probably noticed that some computers
or TIPS may send "orphan" line feeds (that is, line feeds without
a carriage return immediately preceeding). Most editors that
run under CP/M will not properly handle files of this type. I have
just written a new utility program (based on FILTER.ASM) which
corrects any file with this problem. In fact, it will take files
which contain only carriage returns (and no line feeds) and change
them to normal CRLF CP/M end-of-line format. See MC:CPM;FILTEX ASM
and FILTEX HEX.
