SQUISH is used to delete any characters beyond a specified width and trim off any trailing blanks or tabs that remain. It is usually used to remove a sequence field and convert an imported source file to a standard FILES-11 text file. SQUISH accepts command lines of the form >SQU[ISH] filespec[/WI:width] where filespec is the file to be squished. SQUISH uses the latest or specified version of the file as input, and creates a new version as output. There are no defaults for filename or type. The optional switch, WI, specifies the maximum record length (decimal). WI may not be greater than 132. The default value is 72.
