paper-tape/perl-tools/README.htm
r23 r30 11 11 CPAN modules, etc. -- so they'll run on almost every platform. 12 12 13 <h3>The files in detail</h3> 14 15 <p>This is an overview over the perl tools: 16 17 <ul> 18 <li><a href="byte-tester">byte-tester</a>: Will simply output 19 a byte with the value you gave the program via argv[1]. Nice 20 for sending special bytes via shell scripts to the puncher 21 <li><a href="hex-meter">hex-meter</a>: Generates a quite long 22 byte pattern that contains all possible byte values from 0x00 23 up to 0xFF. Nice for debugging and espacially practical for 24 counting rapidly the position on another paper tape. 25 <li><a href="how-long-is-this-papertape">how-long-is-this-papertape</a>: 26 This is a kind of <tt>du</tt> shell utility for paper tapes – 27 it won't count the size some files take on your hard disk but 28 the length of paper tape they would produce if punched out ;-) 29 <li><a href="label-it">label-it</a>: A very simple implementation of 30 a paper tape font: You input the label via command line arguments 31 and this script will produce some bytes that will look like text 32 when punched out on a paper tape ;-) 33 <br>This was the very first implementation of a paper tape font. 34 <li><a href="punch-simulator">punch-simulator</a>: A very simple 35 program to print out how bytes (reading from STDIN) would look 36 on a paper tape. ASCII art :-) 37 <li><a href="read-file">read-file</a>: This is a simple program that 38 reads in numbers from a text file and packs them together to bytes. 39 So this behaves a bit like byte-tester, only more complex. 40 <li><a href="strip-null-bytes.c">strip-null-bytes (C program)</a>: 41 This is a quite simple program that strips all null bytes at the 42 start and end of a file/stdin and outputs that to stdout. Since 43 that s a quite low-level task, it's implemented in C. 44 <li><a href="alter-udo-parser">udo-parser 0</a>, 45 <a href="udo-parser">udo-parser 1</a>: Some simple Perl ASCII 46 file parsers that generate byte data to stdout. 47 </ul> 48 49 50 <h3>Copyright for the complete directory</h3> 13 51 <p>Copyright 2008 Sven Köppel, all tools in this directory are 14 52 released under the GPL.
