DDDDEEEESSSSCCCCRRRRIIIIPPPPTTTTIIIIOOOONNNN _D_e_l_a_m_c delaminates an input file into several output files according to the separator characters specified by the cccchhhhaaaarrrrssss argument following the ----tttt flag. _D_e_l_a_m_c reads iiiinnnnffffiiiilllleeee and writes the fields in each line to the corresponding output files as individual lines. If no data occurs in the speci- fied position for a given input line an empty output line is written. This insures that all output files contain the same number of lines as the input file. If `-' is used for iiiinnnnffffiiiilllleeee, the standard input is read. If `-' is used as an output file name, the corresponding field is written to the standard output. If the ----tttt flag is not used, an ascii horizontal tab character is assumed as the default field separator. The use of _d_e_l_a_m_c is illustrated by the following examples. delamc tst.asm labels opcodes operands reads the file _t_s_t._a_s_m and writes the fields, each of which is separated by a tab character, to the output files _l_a_b_e_l_s, _o_p_c_o_d_e_s, and _o_p_e_r_a_n_d_s. delamc -t: scores names matric ps1 ps2 ps3 reads the file _s_c_o_r_e_s and writes the fields, each of which is separated by a colon, to the indicated output files. delamc -t,:; oldata f1 f2 reads the file _o_l_d_a_t_a and separates the fields using either a comma, a colon, or a semicolon. NNNNOOOOTTTTEEEESSSS The functionality of the Software Tools _d_e_l_a_m has been divided. _D_e_l_a_m_c differs from the Tools syntax by allowing a set of separation characters to be specified.
