The original question was:
How can I send report outside of DU (which is using monspace fonts),
especialy to Exchange, and keeping it readable.
My thanks goes to:
Sean McGlynn
Kurt A. Schumacher
who give hoppe again and pointed me to the required tools. With there
help I finaly found two differents solutions
1. Converting Text files to HTML
- Using a perl script called txt2html.pl (and adding default font
courier after the heading in this script)
- send the file as attachment in Mime format with mpack tool from the
DEC freeware CD
(the file extension must be html)
2. Converting Text files to RTF
- Using a default RTF heading template(with courier definition) and
appending the text with an awk command ( like # df ¦awk '{printf "%s
\\par\n", $0}' > some_log_file ). The \par just means new line
- again send the file as attachment (file ext. RTF)
