Boring copyright message:
-------------------------
This file and all it's associated files are copyright Paul Vigay.
However, I've decided to release it as 'Shareware'. This means that you are free to pass it
around and upload it onto bulletin boards, as long as all the original files stay intact and
unaltered.
If you use the program I would welcome a donation, the amount of which I shall leave up to you.
In return I will send you any updates or new versions, depending on whether it is worth
upgrading from the version  you have.

Anyway, copyright bit over with so lets get on and see what the actual program does.


Function:
---------
TextTidy will allow attempty to tidy up scruffy looking text files, for example those that have
been formatted on the PC and got LF's and CR's in the wrong places at line ends.

It will also allow you to remove completely all return codes, which is handy for converting
!Pipedream TAB files into a format suitable for a DTP such as Impression.

In addition, you can filter out all control codes from a text file.

Selecting 'Options' from the menu allows you to toggle the various settings available.


To Use:
-------
Simply drag the text file to be converted onto the !TextTidy icon. A save dialogue box will then
appear, allowing you to type in the destination filename and drag it's icon to the required
directory window.
The destination filename must not overwrite the original file. If an attempt is made to do this,
an error will be given and the conversion will stop.

If you find any bugs, or have any suggestions for future applications please feel free to write
