RELEASE NOTES FOR ELFNIKS
This is a utility of the 'one dumb job' variety. It does one job, and
does it fast and with minimal hoorah.
ElfNiks is SYSTEM 7 ONLY. Its only interface is Drag and Drop, so you
cannot use it with earlier Systems. If you double-click on it from a
System 6 machine, you will get an error message and the software will
quit gracefully.
ElfNiks does two dumb jobs, actually: it filters files originating on
Unix systems and converts the Linefeeds to Carriage Returns. And it
filters DOS files, throwing the Linefeeds away. (When did I ever
write a Mac utility that didn't toss the Linefeeds?)
To use ElfNiks _with_ System 7, simply select the files you want to
filter and drag them on the program's icon or an alias of it. New
files will be created, and your original source files will remain
unaltered.
