The temp file is now created in the same directory as the original file, then renamed after the conversion is done. Some small doc changes were made as well, mostly typos and addresses.

Udl converts text files between CR, LF and CR/LF (Apple, Unix and MS-DOS).
|
|
It is a very fast utility that ensures that the integrity of the file
|
|
cannot be compromised during the translation. It is also much easier
|
|
to use than tr(1).

Revision History:
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
v1.01
|
|
Tabs are left alone now. Also recognizes CR/LF (MeSsy-DOS).
|
|
|
|
v1.02
|
|
Does no longer read in the complete file, instead creates a temp
|
|
file in prefix 3/.
|
|
|
|
v1.03
|
|
Fixed a bug, allocated not enough mem for strncpy.
|
|
|
|
v1.1
|
|
Changed to use static GS/OS strings again. Made faster by factor
|
|
5.8.
|
|
|
|
v1.11
|
|
Cleaned the code up a bit, wrote a Makefile, all output by udl is
|
|
prefixed with the name it was invoked with.
|
|
|
|
v1.12
|
|
Sped up Apple <-> Unix conversion further (factor 1.5).
|
|
|
|
v1.12 (Unix)
|
|
(December 1993)
|
|
Modified source to produce a Unix version
|
|
|
|
v1.13
|
|
(Updated by Devin Reade, November 1994)
|
|
Added ability to recurse through directories (-R flag).
|
|
Changed behavior to ignore binary files rather than exiting.
|
|
Merged Unix and Apple IIgs versions.
|
|
No message is printed out when a binary file (or, in the IIgs
|
|
implementation, a non-TXT or non-SRC file) is encountered
|
|
unless the -v option is specified.
|
|
|
|
v1.14
|
|
(Soenke Behrens, January 1995)
|
|
udl creates a temporary file in the directory of the
|
|
source file, not in /tmp. This reduces the likelihood of
|
|
data loss in the event of a system crash or powerdown.
|

|
|
=========
|
|
Compiling:
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
There are two makefiles included:
|
|
Makefile.gs - for use on the Apple IIgs running Gno
|
|
Makefile.unix - for use with Unix systems.
|
|
|
|
Although udl on the IIgs can be run from either Gno or Orca shells,
|
|
it cannot be built with the standard Orca installation due to a lack
|
|
of additional libraries.
|
|
|
|
Before you type "make", have a look at the Makefile and edit the defines
|
|
to your liking.
|
|
|
|
Also, udl.c assumes that getopt() is declared in <unistd.h> and that
|
|
the function strdup() exists in <string.h>. You might want to change
|
|
these includes if that's not the case.
