FileMaker uses to export the Carriage Returns which are into the fields, changing them into char 11 “€” instead of let them remain real Carriage Returns (char 13).
This shareware converts, on the fly, the text file just exported, and sets all the chars 11 into a real Carriage Return. It’s very very fast and soft.. If you are not a registered user, you'll always see the splashscreen about the author when quit, and you cannot process TextFiles larger than 32Kb. To avoid this, you need to register (see below "About Registration").
This software executes the tasks:
- It reads a Text File (TEXT) chosen by the user.
- It substitutes the char11 with char13.
- Save the file onto the original file chosen.
The software converts a 1Mbyte TexFile in round 2 seconds.
Of course you can use files longer than 1Mbyte.
If some error occures, the original TextFile will remain untouched.
Requirements:
Power Macintosh or Mac 680X0
MacOs 7.0 or higher
384Kb of free RAM
30Kb free on disk

You can either Copy the data from Register and paste into the body of an email message or you can Save the data to a file and you can attach that file to an email message. There is no need to compress the data file, it's already pretty small. If you have a fax modem, just Print the data to the Kagi fax number.
Payments sent via email are processed within 3 to 4 days. You will receive an email acknowledgement when it is processed. Payments sent via fax take up to 10 days and if you provide a correct internet email address you will receive an email acknowledgement.
If you are paying with Cash or USD Cheque you should print the data using the Register application and send it to the address shown on the form, which is:
Kagi
1442-A Walnut Street #392-U3S

If you have a purchasing department, you can enter all the data into the Register program and then select Invoice as your payment method. Print three copies of the form and send it to your accounts payable people. You might want to highlight the line that mentions that they must include a copy of the form with their payment.
Kagi can not invoice your company, you need to act on my behalf and generate the invoice and handle all the paperwork on your end.
Please do not fax or email payment forms that indicate Cash, Check or Invoice as the payment method. As far as we know, there is still no technology to transfer physical objects via fax or email and without the payment, the form cannot be processed.
