TITLE : NEATL and NEATU FROM : IRV HOFF W6FFC DATE : 1 JUN 83 Originally written by Joe Wright, these programs may be used to format assembly level source code for more uniform presentation. NEATC puts all source code to upper-case and and leaves all DB strings and comments intact. NEATL puts all source code to upper-case, all comments to lower- case and leaves DB strings intact. NEATU puts the entire program to upper-case with the exception of DB strings which remain intact. All three programs have an interesting side benefit. They strip off the parity bit thus eliminating any 7th bits high that WORDSTAR or similar editors might accidently leave on some characters. TO USE: (NEATC used for the following examples, NEATL and NEATU work the same way: B>NEATC displays the way the program may be used B>NEATC HELLO.ASM NEWNAME.ASM keeps the original file intact while making a new file called NEWNAME.ASM B>NEATC HELLO.ASM renames the original file to HELLO.BAK, names the new file the original name An interesting feature is available: ;' Using this method will keep names like Irv Hoff or labels ;' like "START" in the original case should you prefer neither ;' program to alter some of the comment lines. Using the ;' leading "tick" in this manner keeps the comments intact, ;' regardless which program is being used. Of course this ;' technique is unnecessary with NEATC which leaves all com- ;' lines intact. - Irv Hoff
