C18 String Reformat Tool

by Rolf Lear

Input must have the structure:

M_NULL=
M_MAIN=Main Menu
M_A=AAAA
M_B=BBBB
M_C=CCCC
M_SPACE= SPACE
M_CRAZY=!@#$%
M_LONG=AbcdEfgHijkLmnopQrstUvwZyz
M_SUBSET=ACE
M_SUPERSET=CCAAAA

1. Only lines with an '=' are processed
2. All spaces are significant.
3. Carriage Returns (\r) next to Newlines (\n) are ignored.
4. All output is issued with just newlines (\n) which may or may not be appropriate for your development environment.
5. The String Constant is split somewhere after 50 characters on to a new line. The C Continuation '\' must be the very last character on the line!

void LCDPrintString(int pos)
{
 while (strings[pos])
 LCDWriteChar(strings[pos++]);
}
.....
LCDPrintString(M_MENU);
LCDPrintString(M_SUPERSET);
....
