TRIM will process one or more files and do some or all of the following: Remove characters from the beginning or end of each line; Remove (and optionally replace) characters from within each line; Insert a prefix or suffix on each line; Insert a line at the beginning or end of each file; Trim trailing blanks and tabs from each line; Remove blank lines. Wildcard characters (* and %) are allowed in the directory specification, file name, or file type fields of the file specification. When wildcard characters are used, all files whose specifications satisfy the wildcard fields are processed. The output file(s) produced will have the same name and extension as the input file(s). This version has a lot of additions since the last SIG tape: /PREFIX, /SUFFIX, /TRAIL, /START, /FINAL, /REMOVE, /REPLACE, /STATISTICS, /APPEND and /PREPEND; special processing for the first line of a file with /PREFIX and /SUFFIX; selectable case sensitivity, and a larger record buffer. This program was originally an attempt to replace the TRIM program which was once distributed with ALL-IN-1. This version has some qualifiers and actions not found in the original, and may not exactly duplicate the functionality of the original. Bart Z. Lederman System Resources Corp. Burlington MA
