A note about the future of ecsoft2.org

ecsoft2.org runs on software (Drupal 7 and PHP 7.4) that reached its end of life years ago and no longer receives security updates. Keeping the site online safely is getting harder.

Giving it a future means migrating it to a current platform — and that is only worth doing if people still use it and want to help keep it alive.

If you care about ecsoft2.org, as a user, a contributor, or someone willing to lend a hand, please ggambatiscali [dot] it (get in touch) by January 31, 2027.

If no one comes forward by then, the site will be turned into a read-only archive, so that its content stays available.

Usage: detext SourceFile TargetFile where SourceFile is the name of the corrupted file you want to fix and TargetFile is the file name to call the fixed file. Source code is included for the curious or those who want to compile it on a different platform. It's generic C so should build on anything with a C compiler. -- Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au> http://silk.apana.org.au/
