# Convert fixed width format to R/S "table"
# By KH <Kurt.Hornik@ci.tuwien.ac.at>, based on a script by Doug Bates
# Usage:  fwf2table -f FORMAT [-s SEP] FILE,
# where FORMAT is the format string, typically "Ax Ay Az ..." with x, y,
# z etc being the widths of the columns and `A' means that the field is
# to be interpreted as an ASCII character string with trailing white
# space suppressed, and SEP is the record separator to be inserted in
# the output (default is a space).
#require "getopts.pl";
