Description

		
txt2char - 1.20
===============

Transforms an Amiga-ASCII compatible textfile (including any tabs and
newlines) to a one-dimensional char array (char[]) ready to be included
and printed in C.

Usage: txt2char <filename> [variable_name]

C source code (with some comments) and a makefile is included in the package.


Example
-------

Let's say you have a textfile named "test.txt".

Then will the following in Shell:

  txt2char test.txt some_var > test.h

Transform it to another file called "test.h". This can then in C be included
and printed straight out like:

#include "test.h"
  //..
printf("%s", some_var);
  //..
