bin2obj(1)	       Binary to include file converter		    bin2obj(1)

NAME
       bin2obj - The Free Pascal binary to pascal include file converter.

SYNOPSIS
       bin2obj [-aeouUz] -c constname infile

DESCRIPTION
       bin2obj	reads a binary file and converts it to a pascal typed constant
       declaration.  The constant is an array of bytes (zero based), in	 which
       each  byte  has	the value of the byte at the offset index in the file.
       (index is the index in the array).

USAGE
       bin2obj accepts a filename of a binary file, and needs the  name	 of  a
       constant	 (use  the  -c	option). The output goes to standard output by
       default. If no unitname is given, the output will be  in	 the  form  of
       code which can be written to an include file.

OPTIONS
       bin2obj has a small number of options to control its behaviour:

       -a     Write ASCII data instead of bytes. The constant array will be an
	      array of char instead of an array of bytes. The  bytes  will  be
	      written as ASCII constants.

       -e key If  this	option	is  given, the data will be encrypted with key
	      which is a string of 8 characters long.

       -h     emit a small helptext.

       -o filename
	      By default, the output goes to standard output (the screen).  If
	      this  option  is	given, bin2obj will write the output to a file
	      with name filename instead. This option is mandatory if  the  -U
	      option is specified.

       -u [unitname]
	      This  option  tells  bin2obj  to generate a unit. By default the
	      output is just the declaration of the constant. If the  unitname
	      is  not  specified, bin2obj tries to determine it from the input
	      filename.

       -U [unitname]
	      The same as the -u option, only bin2obj will also call the  com‐
	      piler and compile the unit.

       -z     Compress	the data before creating the unit. zlib compression is
	      used.
