=head1 NAME

var_display - Display the strings stored in an Applesoft BASIC VAR file

=head1 SYNOPSIS

B<var_display> VAR-FILE

=head1 DESCRIPTION

B<var_display> lists the contents of an Applesoft BASIC VAR file.
Currently, it can only display string variables and string arrays.
The strings are formatted ready to drop into a C or Perl program, with
Control-M (the Apple's end-of-line character) displayed as C<\n>,
backslashes and quotation marks quoted (C<\\> and C<\">), and control
characters in the range \x00 to \x1F displayed in hexadecimal
notation.

=head1 REQUIREMENTS

B<var_display> is a stand-alone utility.

=head1 BUGS

B<var_display> only displays string variables and one-dimensional
string arrays.  It wouldn't be hard to add support for integer and
floating-point variables or multi-dimensional arrays, but I don't need
it.  If you do, send email!
