SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION
The Copy/Replace Utility Program is a general purpose PC based utility capable
of performing several wide-ranging functions. The basic division of the
functions is as the program name implies, both the ability to Copy input data
files and to Replace information within the files.
The utility is used primarily for the conversion of textual input data files.
The user controls the final output through the use of a Command File containing
a range of parameters dictating the desired output.
The functions performed by the Copy/Replace Utility may include:
o Processing multiple input files.
o Selective processing of input records.
o Selective processing of character segments in the input records.
o Selective ignoring of character segments in the data file.
o Selective extraction of character segments from within the data.
o Input data files translated from ASCII to EBCDIC, or from EBCDIC to
ASCII.
o Conversion of non-printable hex characters into their printable forms.
o Replacement of "unique" character strings in the data file, even
across record or file boundaries.
o Concatenation of the input records.
o Output record size either larger or smaller than input record size.
o Forced new records (lines) based upon "unique" character strings.
o Forced new datasets (output files) based upon "unique" character
strings or number of output records in file.
o User selectable line numbering of output file.
o Pass thru of a file with contains information which should remain
un-altered (useful in creating output files that can be directly
loaded into certain word processing packages -- ie. WORD PERFECT).
The Copy/Replace Utility can perform many useful conversion tasks. When the
user has well defined input and output requirements the limitations of the
program are few.
SECTION 2: PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The following description of the program processing is very general in nature.
The intent is to present a basic flow of the execution of the parameters
supplied by the user in the Command File. The processing of the input data
file is actually performed as two separate program functions, the Copy function
and the Replace function.
PROGRAM INVOCATION
The syntax for invoking the Copy/Replace Utility is as follows:

But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
