DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Sometimes a file contains some nonASCII characters that are in the way.
|
|
This program allows the lines containing only ASCII characters to be
|
|
grepped from the file. With the -n flag, the nonASCII lines are grepped.
|
|
No matter whether the flag is used or not, the program returns an exit
|
|
status of true if the file is pure ASCII, and false otherwise.
