SYNOPSIS
========

ftohex *format* *infile* [*outfile*]

DESCRIPTION
===========

**ftohex** converts a binary file produced by **dasm**\(1) to an Intel
.HEX file, which may be useful as input to an EPROM programmer.

*format* is required, and must match the **-f** option given to
**dasm** to produce the file. Format *3* is a raw binary image, which
need not have been produced by **dasm**. Format *1* is **dasm**'s default,
if no **-f** was given.

*infile* is required; there's no option to read from **stdin**, but you
might try **/dev/stdin** if that's supported on your OS.

If *outfile* is given, .HEX output will be written to it. Otherwise, the output
is written to **stdout**.

EXAMPLE
=======

::

  dasm example.asm -f2 -oexample.out
  ftohex 2 example.out example.hex
