(view help text of MaskText.cs as plain text)
Input.exe, Version 1.00
Apply a mask to input text
Usage: MaskText.exe mask [ text ]
or: command | MaskText.exe mask
Where: mask is the mask to be applied to the input text
(type MaskText.exe /M for help on the mask "language")
text is the input text to be matched against the mask
command is a console command whose output is piped as input text
Notes: If text is specified on the command line, the program will ignore any
piped input. If no text is specified on the command line, nor piped,
the program will wait for typed input (no prompt).
Whether interactive or piped, only one line of input text is accepted,
i.e. everything including and following the first linefeed is ignored.
Return code is 0 if the input text matches the mask, otherwise 1.
