You can use a pattern as input, but it needs to be in dot-X form.

Code: Select all

type TestP
.X.XX......X.....X.XX....X.X......X.....XX....X.XX............X...X.XX.X..X.X...X

gsf -f%#xc < TestP
........X.....XXXX..X.X........XX.X...X.......X.XX.....X.X....XX.......XXX.X...X.

I may not have the right version of gsf's program, though I thought I had the last one. If I put .X.XX......X.....X.XX....X.X......X.....XX....X.XX............X...X.XX.X..X.X...X in file TestP
and I type gsf -f%#xc < TestP, what I get is:

Code: Select all

I think that I have a software solution for Denis. See my latest post in "Minlex Library" thread.
