Tel 050 - 417836 (The Netherlands) Written For G. Kuiper Usage: FilterPPDR [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.
