WORK AROUND If run within shell environment (eg CygWin or MKS) write a shell wrapper for native2ascii which determines if output filename already exists and is writeable. The script should remove the output file if both conditions are met before invoking the 1.4.1 native2ascii executable with the supplied args. ###@###.### 2002-08-02
