bongfilter

This is bongfilter $Revision: 2.4 $. Character substitutions can be made easily by substituting into the table caps[] and lowr[] below - a few substitutions have already been made as a demonstration.

There is now an alternate character substitution list which will substitute multicharacter strings for certain characters, e.g., /< for K. Configure at your own peril.

History

The original author (Glasshead/hojunya@ecf.toronto.edu) is no where to be found.

 (more usage information)
 - bongfilter can take input from the command line, or it can take
     info from a pipe, eg: "ls -al | bongfilt -none -alw"
 - the option -none adds no characters for inverse/underline/bold.
 - the option -alw always substitutes, and -ran substitutes sometimes.
 - for your ircII clients, probably the easiest way to incorporate
     bongfilter is to add an alias:
         /ALIAS bongf exec -out [path]/bongfilt -irc -ran
             (or -alw instead of -ran, its up to you)
     and invoking it by: /bongf text here
     from within your ircII client.
