NAME¶

enber - Convert the unber XML output back into BER

SYNOPSIS¶

enber [ -n] [-] [infile...]

DESCRIPTION¶

enber convers the XML-formatted files produced by unber(1) back into the BER format. A single dash denotes the standard input.

OPTIONS¶

-n

Disable input validation. By default, enber performs some basic validity checks against XML input.

EXAMPLES¶

Decode a BER sequence and immediately encode it back

    unber  -p filename.ber | enber - > reconstructed.ber

FOOTNOTES¶

This program does not attempt to perform full-fledged XML parsing. It is merely compatible with unber(1)'s output. In particular, XML style comments are not supported. A hash " #" or two dashes "--" following a whitespace is treated as a beginning of a comment line, which is ignored completely. Empty lines are ignored as well. The following example demostrates the use of comments:

	<C O="0" T="[1]" TL="2" V="2">
		<I O="2" T="[1]" TL="2" V="Indefinite">
		 -- </I O="4" T="[UNIVERSAL 0]" L="4">
		 # Do not terminate:
		 # the absence of end-of-content octets is intentional!
	</C O="6" T="[1]" L="6">
