- .SH NAME
- em_decode,em_encode \- compact to readable EM and v.v.
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .B ~em/lib.bin/em_decode
- [ inputfile [ outputfile ] ]
- .br
- .B ~em/lib.bin/em_encode
- [ inputfile [ outputfile ] ]
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- Most programs involved with the EM project only produce and accept
- EM programs in compact form.
- These files are only machine readable.
- A description of this compact form can be found in [1].
- To inspect the code produced by compilers or to patch them for one reason
- or another, human readable assembly code is needed.
- Em_decode produces human readable assembly code from the compact form.
- .PP
- Em_decode accepts the normal compact form in both optimized and
- unoptimized form.
- .PP
- Em_encode produces the compact form
- out of these human readable assembly code.
- .PP
- The first argument is the input file.
- The second argument is the output file.
- Both programs can act as a filter.
