- O.K., enough legal crap. By the way, I didn't write ALL of
- this - the header formats are copied verbatim from the
- description distributed by PTel, makers of Telix. Thanks for
- circulating it, Colin. If you find bugs in the source, or
- ideas for improvements (of which I have a few), let me know. If
- you find the program really useful and otherwise wonderful for
- some reason, a $5 contribution wouldn't hurt anyone. Not that
- I'll starve without it, but...
-
- TlxSort sorts Telix v.30 phone directories (currently by name
- only). The simplest syntax is :
-
- tlxsort
-
- which will sort TELIX.FON, and write the sorted directory to the
- same file. Up to two parameters may be given, that is:
-
- tlxsort [input file name] [output file name]
-
- If both are given, the first is used as the name of the input
- file, and the second is used as the name of the output file. If
- only one is given, it is the input file and TELIX.FON is the
- output file.
-
- Note that the source is included for your viewing pleasure. As
- before, I only ask that you send bug fixes or comments to me.
- It's written for Microsoft C 5.0+ or QuickC. The pack() #pragma
- should be the only big portability problem -- it makes sure that
- the compiler doesn't pad structure definitions with filler bytes.
- If your compiler doesn't do this, you can just delete the
- #pragmas.
-
- Under Microsoft C, just say:
-
- cl -Ox -AC tlxsort.c read_fon.c writefon.c misc.c
-
- or under QuickC
-
- qcl -Ox -AC tlxsort.c read_fon.c writefon.c misc.c
-
-
- have fun!
