You could probably write one in half an hour yourself. My COPYA program does this among other things. The Windows version accepts files with either CRLF or LF, and writes the output file with CRLF. COPYA is included in the PIC development tools which you can download at http://www.embedinc.com/pic/dload.htm. ***************************************************************** Embed Inc, embedded system specialists in Littleton Massachusetts (978) 742-9014, http://www.embedinc.com -- http://www.piclist.com hint: To leave the PICList mailto:piclist-unsubscribe-request@mitvma.mit.edu
