Thanks for the note, Mike. I did write a tokenizer program for Windows boxes
(TOKENIZE.EXE). It presents a simple window with a list box showing all .DO
files which, when selected, will be tokenized, change the extension to .BA, and
save them to the same directory. Or you can create a new name for them prior
to tokenization. If you inadvertently select a real text .DO file, and IIRC,
the program will create an error message.
I will try to get it up on the Member Pages on Club100 soon (will try for next
week).

Subject: Re: [M100] Recompile multiple BA files
Bob Pigford and I both wrote DOS/Win tokenizer programs some years ago. My
version (entoke.exe) is in my personal folder on the Club100 site; someone
(Jake?) had volunteered to convert all the mislabelled .BA files on Club100 but
when he lost interest so did I, so there may still be one or two very rare
conditions where it gets confused.
It does one program at a time; use one of the various batch methods in DOS or
Windows to run it across an entire folder.
There is a complementary de-tokenizer in the Club100 programs section
somewhere; I recall many happy hours batch converting folders of .DO type files
to .BA and back again for batch comparison with the original.

I would think using VirtualT someone has figured out a sure fire way to just
recompile all BA files to their proper format, so we can then just load them
into the M100.
This would be ideal with Birt's Backpack. Then I can just put all the proper BA
files on it, load them and run them.
Thanks!
