Short: Alter line ends, removes ANSI & garbage. Author: agmsmith@BIX.com Uploader: agmsmith shell Portal com Type: util/conv Architecture: m68k-amigaos What's it useful for? Changing the line ends of text files so that they can be used on the Amiga (line feed), Macintosh (carriage return) or IBM PC (CRLF). It doesn't need to be told what format the input is (it accepts any of them). AGMSFixText was written as an exercise in making user interfaces, so you can use it from the command line or as a workbench program. Both have lots of bells and whistles (about 95% of the program is user interface code). There are some other useful text fixing features: AGMSFixText can be told to strip the high bit from the characters (sometimes a problem with various BBS and other services that set the high bit). It can remove ANSI escape sequences. Finally, it can remove all control characters (except tabs and line ends which get left in on purpose). There isn't any documentation; it should be easy enough to use. AGMSFixText supports icon tooltypes (see the included icon or run AGMSFixText on itself to find likely tooltype strings), a ReadArgs command line (with extra help text if you know how to get it), the ASL file requester, hot keys, progress bar, shift-clicked icons (the first becomes the input and the second the output), font sensitivity (limited to Topaz sizes), descriptive error messages, and a few other things. - Alex
