WHAT IS THIS?

	This program is a paragraph filler.  That is, it automatically
justifies text and/or makes it into a single paragraph.  It's intended
to be invoked from inside your text editor (if your text editor can
invoke external commands) to neaten up your paragraphs, but it also
works on the command line, reading from standard input and writing to
standard output.

	I have successfully used it with TurboText, and a macro file
(FillTest.ttx) is provided as an example of how to do it.

PROGRAMMING INFO

	I ported this program to the Amiga, and it compiles with the Manx
Aztec C compiler version 5.2a.  My changes included:

o	Switched to ANSI C and adding prototypes.

o	All the "#ifdef AMIGA" sections:

	o	Added an Amiga version number for the "Version" command.
	o	Added support for "Fill ?" to get a usage message.

o	Moved the usage message into a new function, Usage().

o	Commented out the "#include <memory.h>" and adding
	"#include <stdlib.h>".

o	Provided a getopt() function in getopt.c.

o	Added -DUNIX to the UNIX Makefile.

o	Created a simple Amiga Makefile for Aztec C.

o	Bumped the version number to 2.7a.

My thanks to the author for making this code available in comp.sources.misc!
If you find any bugs, please send them to me.
I can't guarantee I'll fix them, since my port was such a quick hack,
but it can't hurt to ask me....
