Option M -- File Mode. FILT has four file modes: "Source Code" for assembler source code; "ASCII Text" for ordinary ASCII text files; "WordStar W" for WordStar document files (removes dot commands); and "WordStar D" for WordStar document files (retains dot commands). Any of these modes can be made the default. See the accompanying documentation for details on the differences between these modes. Whatever mode is chosen as the default can be changed with the "S", "A", "W", or "D" command line options. Option T -- Tab Option. Tabs are always expanded to spaces, but then the file can be retabbed or not as the default. The chosen default can be toggled with the "T" command line option. Option Q -- Quiet Mode. This option determines whether FILT will be in verbose or quiet mode by default (except that FILT always defaults to quiet mode if the ZCPR3 quiet flag is set). The default may be toggled with the command line "Q" option. Option P -- Progress Reports. Normally FILT displays a running line count while it is working. This report can be suppressed by selecting "NO".
