Hi,
This script is used to remove binary (garbage) characters from a text
file.
unless ARGV.length == 1
puts "Dude, not the right number of arguments."
puts "Usage: ruby PrintableCharsOnly.rb YourInputFile > YourOutputFile\n"
exit
end
file = ARGV[0]
File.readlines(file).each do |line|
line.each_byte { |c|
print c.chr if c==9 || c==10 || c==13 || (c > 31 && c < 127)
}
end
