A short collection of Dos tools for manipulating ASCII pictures.

	LR.BAT    - flip ascii-art picture left-right
	TB.BAT    - flip ascii-art picture top-bottom
	CW90.BAT  - rotate ascii-art picture 90 degrees
	CCW90.BAT - rotate ascii-art picture 270 degrees

 Usage:
	LR  picture.in			(output goes to screen)
	LR  picture.in  picture.out	(output goes to file)
	LR  picture.in  > picture.out	(output redirects to file)
 
 same usage for TB, CW90 and CCW90

 The four Dos scripts (or batch-files) all require ASC-TOOL.EXE,
 TR-386.EXE, SED-386.exe and CWSDPMI.EXE to be in your search PATH.

Install

 On Windows95, open a Dos window, create a directory with
 MKDIR C:\AT
 copy all the files from the archive into that directory
 then change to that directory with
 CD \AT
 Check the tool works with
 LR TEST.ASC
 and
 TB TEST.ASC

  type test.asc
