This is a tiny utility written to filter text documents and provide an ASCII compliant
output.
FIXTXT will blot out mercilessly every non-ASCII character while attempting to save 
indentation and paragraphs. It has been  written in about 15 minutes by Yours Truly.

It can be used for:

-Reading M$ Word - Wordpad - Wordperfect files with Windows Notepad, EDIT.COM, or
 even TYPE | MORE.
-Fixing long lines in text files (happens with Netscape, Opera, and any text viewer
 without automatic wordwrap)
-Correcting uncompliance to CR/LF standard which often mess up Windows Notepad.
-Correcting indentation and paragraphs (es. raw text on a browser window without the
 PRE tag).

In general if they send you a "text" file which is a pain to read, run it through this
little program and try again, see if it looks any better.

Usage: FIXTXT (input fancy doc file) (output readable ascii file)

The output file will be displayed on screen as it is generated (used for checking out);
press any key to exit when it is done.

I put it together after being dead tired of people sending me Microsoft Word files which
I can't read. Source is included (yeah, it's lame, but hey)

For bugs etc. you have the source, fix it yourself, it's free :)
