Hmm, a couple of weeks ago I posted info on a free EDI reformatting utility we
offer; that message was posted both here on EDI-L
and also posted here:
http://www.powerbasic.com/support/forums/Forum12/HTML/000269.html

(Sheesh if I had any brains I'd post an HTML version on my web site!!)

The current output options for the utility are:
EDICLEAN.EXE inputfilename;outputfilename[;<FormatOption>]Optional
<FormatOption>
/W segments terminated with segment terminator only (wrapped)
/U segments terminated with segment terminator plus CRLF (unwrapped)
/M segments terminated with CRLF only
/LS segments terminated with segment terminator plus LF (Unix text)
/L segments terminated with LF only (Unix text)Default <FormatOption> is /U

Are you suggesting perhaps you might like it were I to add a couple of new
options?
/Bnnn blocked: CRLF inserted after each 'nnn' characters
/BLnnn blocked: LF inserted after each 'nnn' characters

i.e., in your example,

EDICLEAN.EXE gisfile;bankfile;/B80

Would this output option be useful to anyone other than Ms. Feitelberg?
