STRIP - cause line numbers to be stripped on input.

Usage:

B:
   strip( [unit] );

C:
   void strip( [FILE *unit] );

Where:

unit

is the number of an open input unit. If "unit" is not specified, the current standard input unit is used.

Description:

STRIP sets things up so that line numbers are stripped from the beginnings of lines read from the specified input unit. If "unit" is assigned to the terminal, no stripping of line numbers is done.

If you want to strip line numbers from all input units, you can simply define an external variable called ".strip" and initialize it to some non-zero value.
