Snippet from the Read Me:
> Drop Text is a drag-and-drop program that I wrote to convert a
> multitude of text files that we seem to collect into whatever format
> is needed. In this case, conversion between Mac (or Apple II), MS-
> DOS, and Unix are what is done.
>
> There are other programs out there that can do these, of course, but
> mine has some advantages:
>
> ? Converts the file "in-place" - you don't have to bother with
> extensions to the filename to get rid of or tons of duplicate files.
> ? Very safe - any error aborts the process, leaving the file being
> converted untouched.
> ? Abortable at any point.
> ? Checks the file for resource forks and "illegal" ASCII codes and
> does warnings - you can then choose to stop, skip, continue, or just
> do them all.
> ? Processes directories up to 10 levels deep.
> ? Can work on non-text files if you so desire.
> ? Can change the file type & creator if you want.
> ? Can remove trailing tabs and spaces from lines if you want
> (greatfor C/C++ source files!).
> ? Can remove high bits of text (high ASCII into low ASCII).
> ? Can convert AppleWorks WordProcesser files to text files.
> ? Fast - processes in excess of 15k per second on a stock IIsi.

> How to use this:
> Well, real simple: select some files and drag it on top of the icon
> (the falling safe). If you hold down the OPTION button as you drop
> the file(s) or folder(s), the program will give you the Conversion
> Settings (the Options ![Smile][1] ) dialog. These settings are saved
> in the Preferences directory, so the next time you use the program
> it will use the same settings as before.
>
> Requirements for use:
> ? System 7.0 or later.
> ? 39k on disk for program, 384k when running.
> ? Some text or AWP files to convert (of course).
>
> Compatibility:
> ? 32-bit clean.
> ? Should work on a 68000 CPU - if not, let me know.
> ? If this doesn't work on your IIvx, I'm sorry, but it works on
> everything else I've tried (SE, SE/30, IIsi, PowerBooks, etc).
