+NAME
+ hex2tap - Converts an Intel format segment dump to a Spectrum emulator
+ TAP file.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+ int2tap [ -b ] [ -s ] [ -a address ] output-file input-file ...
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ hex2tap takes one or more Intel format segment files - as produced by
+ an assembler like tpasm(1) - and produces a Spectrum compatible tape
+ file (TAP file).
+
+OPTIONS
+ int2tap accepts these switches
+
+ -b Just produce the binary file. By default int2tap will generate
+ a TAP file with two files in - a BASIC loader and then the code
+ itself. This switch disables the generation of the BASIC loader
+ portion. disabled if this switch is provided (see USAGE).
+
+ -s By default int2tap will generate a single CODE file in the tape
+ file. Using this switch means that each input file will gener-
+ ate a seperate CODE file.
+
+ -a address
+ By default int2tap assumes that the base address of the first
+ input file is the start address. This switch allows that to be
+ overridden. Note this switch will have no effect if the -b
+ switch is used. The address can be passed either in decimal,
+ octal (starting with a 0), or hex (starting with 0x).
