I had one to hand, called /sys/src/cmd/upas/padfrom.c
I think I wrote it, though it may have come from somone
else on the list, if so I appologise.
#include <u.h>
#include <libc.h>
#include <bio.h>
main()
{
char *p;
Biobuf bi, bo;
Binit(&bi, 0, OREAD);
Binit(&bo, 1, OWRITE);
while ((p = Brdline(&bi, '\n')) != nil && Blinelen(&bi) > 1)
Bwrite(&bo, p, Blinelen(&bi));
Bputc(&bo, '\n');
while ((p = Brdline(&bi, '\n')) != nil){
if (strncmp(p, "From ", 5) == 0)
Bputc(&bo, ' ');
Bwrite(&bo, p, Blinelen(&bi));
}
}
