STRP normally removes leading line numbers from a file. Output goes to the standard output. If no input file is specified (either by filename or redirection), STRP reads input from the terminal; to indicate the end of input, press BREAK or hold down CTRL and press "\". If you want to enter input from the terminal, you must redirect output to a file.
If the input and output file names on the command line are the same, STRP starts by copying the original file contents into a file named "fc*lu". STRP then processes the file contents and writes the results into the original file.
