NAME¶
yodlstriproff - strip ASCII control characters
SYNOPSIS¶
command | yodlstriproff > outputfile
DESCRIPTION¶
The yodlstriproff program is a very simple tool to strip ASCII control
characters from a stream, so that only `bare’ ASCII is left. The
stripped control sequences are ^H (backspace) followed by any character; this
mechanism is used to underline or boldface text on terminals that support it.
yodlstriproff is commonly used with the Yodl converters
yodl2msless and yodl2manless.
