NAME

     inline-detox -- clean up filenames (stream-based)

SYNOPSIS

     inline-detox [-hnLrv] [-s -sequence] [-f -configfile] file ...

DESCRIPTION

     The inline-detox utility can remove spaces and other such annoyances from streams.  It'll also translate or cleanup Latin-1 (ISO 8859-1)
     characters encoded in 8-bit ASCII, Unicode characters encoded in UTF-8, and CGI escaped characters.  Basically its detox, but does not oper-
     ate on files.

   Sequences
     inline-detox is driven by a configurable series of filters, called a sequence.  Sequences are covered in more detail in detoxrc(5) and are
     discoverable with the -L option.  Some examples of default sequences are iso8859_1 and utf_8.

   Options
     The main options:

     -f configfile
		 Use configfile instead of the default configuration files for loading translation sequences.  No other config file will be
		 parsed.

     -h --help	 Display helpful information.

     -L 	 List the currently available sequences.  When paired with -v this option shows what filters are used in each sequence and any
		 properties applied to the filters.

     -r 	 Recurse into subdirectories.

     -s sequence
		 Use sequence instead of default.

     -v 	 Be verbose about which files are being renamed.

     -V 	 Show the current version of inline-detox.

   Deprecated Options
     Deprecated Options are options that were available in earlier versions of inline-detox but have lost their meaning and are being phased out.

     --remove-trailing
		 Removes _ and - after .'s in filenames.  This was first provided in the 0.9 series of inline-detox.  After the introduction of
		 sequences, it lost its meaning, as you could now determine the properties of wipeup through a particular sequence's configura-
		 tion.	It presently forces all instances of the wipeup filter to use remove trailing, regardless of what's actually in the config
		 files.

FILES

     detoxrc	    The system-wide detoxrc file.
     ~/.detoxrc     A user's personal detoxrc.	Normally it extends the system-wide detoxrc, unless -f has been specified, in which case, it is
		    ignored.
     iso8859_1.tbl  The default ISO 8859-1 translation table.
     unicode.tbl    The default Unicode (UTF-8) translation table.

EXAMPLES

     echo Foo Bar | inline-detox -s iso8859_1 -v
		 Will run the sequence iso8859_1 listing any changes and returning the result to STDOUT.

HISTORY

     detox was originally designed to clean up files that I had received from friends which had been created using other operating systems.  It's
     trivial to create a filename with spaces, parenthesis, brackets, and ampersands under some operating systems.  These have special meaning
     within FreeBSD and Linux, and cause problems when you go to access them.  I created inline-detox to clean up these files.

AUTHORS

     inline-detox was written by Doug Harple.

BUGS

     Long options don't work under Solaris or Darwin.

     An error in the config file will cause a segfault as it's going to print the offending word within the config file.
