They are ensoft.com and unsoft1c.lbr. unsoft will remove soft spaces, end-of-lines, hyphens, etc. and convert or lose dot commands. Much more powerful than using pip to strip off high order bits. ensoft will take a plain text file and put the soft spaces and line feeds back in. Also useful. I use both all the time. You might also look at the fil*.* files in the same directory. They are the Irv Hoff filter commands which do much the same. These are cp/m 80 .com files and thus will work on the 8 side of your 816.
