converting all the processing tables for a file to ASCII

[John Esak]

Bob's mail is down as well as his machine... he signed into the FP Room
yesterday morning to let us know that he got his machine to the shop... but
I bet he will not be back up until Friday or so.

I know he wrote "tok" but using the -C and -CA flags does not rebuild the
.prc.  Maybe the thing you are calling "cabe" will do that... but I can't
imagine Bob calling a program the same name as a filePro name even as old as
cabe is... :-)

But, you're probably right. He has written every teeny-tiny filePro utility
you can imagine.
