Hi -
I've found that the only way that ptx will correctly use the contents of the
ignore-file is if that file is formatted in the Unix style with just an octal
012 (LF) between lines. If it is formated in the DOS style with octal 015 (CR)
and 012 (LF) between lines, the results are as though the ignore-file wasn't
specified at all.
Attached is a small zip file that demonstrates the problem. The contents are:
SplForPtx.txt - sample input for the ptx command
ptx_ignore.w.txt - an ignore-file formatted in dos mode
ptx_ignore.u.txt - an ignore-file formatted in unix mode
MakeSplPtx.bat - a script that will create output using the two different
ignore files
ShopTips.w.ptx - output when using the dos formatted ignore-file
ShopTips.u.ptx - output when using the unix formatted ignore-file
