Usage: FilterPPDR <FILENAME> [OPTIONS]
Options : -trNN = NN Tabs after Return
-tbNN = NN Tabs Before colon
-taNN = NN Tabs After return
-hTEXT = Before each record a header with text TEXT
where NN is a 2 digit positive number.
EXAMPLE: FILTERPPDR games.prt -tr3 -tb1 -ta1 "-hRecord no."
*Use -tr1 -tb1 -ta1 when using the output in FinalWriter or FinalCopy
one TAB is enough, because the tabs are easy adjustable.
*No options switches to default wich is:
-tr3 -tb3 -ta3 (and no header)
*" "'s around the third arguments are needed when spaces are used in
the header TEXT.
Purpose:
To filter printed ProData Record wich are printed to file with a
HP-DeskJet5xx printer driver installed. This way they can be imported
in a 'clean' way by some word processors like FinalWriter, FinalCopy
and WordWorth 3. Tabs can be altered from within these programs so you
can produce very nice lists/reports of your ProData databases.
Possible problems:
Wrong output if not used with HP-DeskJet printer driver. Expect improved
version later this year. (If you find it usefull, let us know: development
will speed up that way!)
History:
Well, born in the states, raised by dad and mum, and chased by the dog a
lot, just kidding, this is the first working version.
V0.1 beta: 21 March 1995.
