UNCONTROL - Remove Control Characters From a File

UNCONTROL is a simple program that reads a file and makes a copy with no control characters (except for carriage control).

Once compiled, the program is invoked by a command like:

uncontrol bad.txt good.txt

Files you may copy include:

• uncontrol.c, the source code;
• bad.txt, a "bad" file containing control characters;
• good.txt, a "good" copy of the file;
