int2tap(1)                                                          int2tap(1)



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).

DIAGNOSTICS
       The  diagnostics  produced  by int2tap are intended to be self-explana-
       tory.

NOTES
       This is the initial version of int2tap.
