[comp.os.cpm] Massaging WStar output

JSHIN@HAMPVMS.BITNET (Roly Poly Milk Tins) (12/15/90)

THere is a program called VDOEDIT (sp?) in Simtel that is a raw-text word
processor with WORDSTAR COMMANDS!!! (which I assume is the only reason why you'd
    want to hold on to WS despite its peculiarity).

In fact, the "binary" elements in the WOrdstar output can be removed,
I think, by "clearing" the MSB (bit 7) of each byte. Word star uses all
ASCII code for formating (unlike, say, WOrdPerfect), so getting rid of the end-
of-word markers would just do fine.
