125 !This works for FILTXT.EXE but not for FILBIN.EXE.
!FILBIN.EXE only filters single characters even
!though they can be converted into strings.
!Since version 1.2 the restrictions described below no longer hold.
!Please note that in FILBIN.EXE deleting characters (-1) and
!using string translations (e.g. 32,32,32,32) are not acceptable.
!This is because in filtering a binary file the resultant file must
!be exactly the size of the original file.
