SNR (Search 'N' Replace) 6.1 for Windows95
Copyright (c) 1997 Thomas A. Lundin
ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
Distributed as fully-functional SHAREWARE. ($60 + s/h).
SNR is a multi-string, multi-file search and replace utility. It will
convert text and binary files of any size. SNR allows up to 2,500
conversion "equations" to be defined in a search-and-replace table;
these equations will be performed at one time on each file to be
converted. Multiple conversion tables may be chained in sequence. SNR
has advanced search-and-replace features such as wild card pattern
matching and variable-length string pattern matching.
Examples of the application of SNR are: automating the coding of
data files for desktop publishing; HTML tagging; making global source
code changes; converting Rich Text Format word processing files;
preparing uncoded ASCII files for word processing, desktop publishing or
web; filtering e-mail files. And much, much more.

Files comprising the shareware distribution package for SNR 6.1
README.TXT...........The file you're looking at now
ORDERFRM.DOC ........Registration order form
DEMO.BAT ............Runs a test file through a series of tables for you.
To invoke the demo, just type DEMO

The following sample tables may be run as is, or you can modify them for your
own purposes. Read each of them before running them to see what they are
supposed to do; then run them on some test files of yours to see the result of
the conversion. It's easier to understand a translation table once you know
what it does.
