Short: Cuts headers from email/newsgr. text files. V1.03 Author: oddhs@sn.no (Odd H. Sandvik) Uploader: oddhs sn no (Odd H Sandvik) Type: util/cli Replaces: util/cli/StripHeader Architecture: m68k-amigaos WHAT IS IT ? If you are like me, you save a lot of postings from different news-groups. After a while you have a lot of files lying on your HD, and they do not look nice with their massive headers. This is a program I made to strip those headers from the saved files. You can customize which headers you would like to save through a config file. All others will be erased. This also saves room on your HD, if you're _really_ strapped. :-) INSTALLATION: Simply copy the executable "StripHeader" to anywhere you want, for example C: . Copy the file "StripH.config" to your S: directory, after you've edited it in a text editor. Take a look at it and you will see what I mean. To include a header you would like to save, just copy the first few chars of the line you do not want to erase and insert it in the config file. The text-body will ofcourse not be erased. USAGE: StripHeader This will strip the specified text file for the headers you've not specified in the config file. TOGETHER WITH DOPUS: If you want to use it together with DOpus, then simply make a button for it, and you can do multiple files in one go. Just remember to set these flags on the Button edit screen when you configure it: - Do all files - No filename quote - Recursive directories - Rescan source BUGS: None that I'm aware of. Let me know if you encounter any. COPYRIGHT INFORMATION: StripHeader V1.03 by Odd H. Sandvik, 1997. This program is freeware.

HISTORY: V1.01 First public version. V1.02 Fixed a bug that removed 1 byte from the file if it was previously stripped of it's headers. V1.03 Fixed a serious bug generated by the Devpac assembler causing the saved file to be destroyed when the file was too large. Thanks to Merlyn for noticing.
