In that hour you spent looking through Aquarium, you could
have written the damn C or Rexx program to do the job!
Actually, in the time you took to post your message you could
have hacked out the following ARexx program:

  parse pull inline;
  if eof(stdin) then leave;
  say compress(inline, '0d'x);
end;
