ibm2a and a2ibm are very closely related programs for converting
IBM-PC ASCII text files into Atari ATASCII text files or vice-versa.
Both handle TABS and EOLs.  Both require input and output filenames
as arguments.  Their claim to fame is not that they do TABs and EOLs,
but that they also handle box graphics characters, and even the
heart, spade, diamond and club graphics, so that text-with-graphics
files can be converted from IBM-PC to Atari 8-bit format and back.

Both can be compiled with DJ Delorie's port of GCC, djgpp, or Mix
Software's Power C compiler, under MSDOS.  Other compilers should be
usable, but have not been tried.  The executables in this
distribution were made with Power C, for compatability on non-386
PCs; djgpp runs only on 386 or better.

The executable files are released into the public domain.  The source
code is yours to compile as-is, but any changes should be reported,
so that they can be assimilated into the master sources for any
future revisions that may be released.  In no case are you required
to pay any money; in no case will donations be refused!
