TITLE

irad50 - Convert ASCII input to RAD50

SYNOPSIS

 irad50 <ascii.txt >rad50.dat
 irad50 -help
 irad50 -version

OPTIONS

-help

This option displays the documentation for this script. The script then exits.

-quiet

If asserted, this option suppresses conversion warnings. The default is -noquiet.

-uppercase

If asserted, this option causes the input to be converted to uppercase before conversion to RAD50. The default is -uppercase, since RAD50 does not have any representation for lower-case characters. But you can turn this off by specifying -nouppercase.

-version

This option displays the version of this script. The script then exits.

DETAILS

This Perl script is essentially a Unix pipe, that reads ASCII on standard input, and converts it to RAD50 on standard output.
