I was curious about that.   

I could easily modify this utility to deal with a control z.    I'll probably 
post an update to MTVarConcor along with the other two I recently developed 
(MTLineRef and MTRenum).   I'll try to do that before the weekend.

Methinks it would be admirable goal for the programs to accept anything that 
the M100 accepts.

Ah yes, the good old "Ctl-Z" character to mark the end of the file, followed by 
a bunch of random characters, to the end of the disk sector.

The M-100 knows not to go any further after the Ctl-Z but most file utilities 
don't know that, so the first thing I have to do to clean up the file is remove 
that junk and Ctl-Z.
