.SH SYNOPSIS
\f[B]srec_*\fP \f[I]filename\fP [ \f[I]format\fP ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
This manual page describes the input file specifications for the
\f[I]srec_cat\fP(1), \f[I]srec_cmp\fP(1) and \f[I]srec_info\fP(1)
commands.
.PP
Input files may be qualified in a number of ways: you may specify their
format and you may specify filters to apply to them.
An input file specification looks like this:
.RS
\f[I]filename\fP [ \f[I]format\fP ][ \-ignore\[hy]checksums ]\
[ \f[I]filter\fP \&... ]
.RE
.PP
The
.I filename
may be specified as a file name,
or the special name \(lq\-\(rq which is understood to mean the standard input.
.SS Grouping with Parentheses
There are some cases where operator precedence of the filters can
be ambiguous.  Input specifications may also be enclosed by \fB(\fP
parentheses \fB)\fP to make grouping explicit.  Remember that the
parentheses must be separate words, \f[I]i.e.\fP surrounded by
spaces, and they will need to be quoted to get them past the shell's
interpretation of parentheses.
.SS Those Option Names Sure Are Long

.PP
All options may be abbreviated;
the abbreviation is documented as the upper case letters,
all lower case letters and underscores (_) are optional.
You must use consecutive sequences of optional letters.
.PP
All options are case insensitive,
you may type them in upper case or lower case or a combination of both,
case is not important.
.PP
For example:
the arguments \[lq]\-help\[rq], \[lq]\-HEL\[rq] and \[lq]\-h\[rq] are
all interpreted to mean the \fB\-Help\fP option.
The argument \[lq]\-hlp\[rq] will not be understood,
because consecutive optional characters were not supplied.
.PP
Options and other command line arguments may be
mixed arbitrarily on the command line.

.PP
The GNU long option names are understood.
Since all option names for
.I \*(n)
are long,
this means ignoring the extra leading \[lq]\-\[rq].
The \[lq]\fB\-\-\fIoption\fB=\fIvalue\fR\[rq] convention is also understood.

.\" ----------  H  ---------------------------------------------------------
.TP 8n
\fB\-HEX_Dump\fP
This option says to try to read a hexadecimal dump file, more or less
in the style output by the same option.  This is not an exact reverse
mapping, because if there are ASCII equivalents on the right hand side,
these may be confused for data bytes.  Also, it doesn't understand white
space representing holes in the data in the line.

.TP 8n
\fB\-IDT\fP
This option says to the the IDT/sim binary format to read the file.

.RS
This option says to use the Motorola S\[hy]Record format to read the file.
(May be written \fB\-S\[hy]Record\fP as well.)
See
.IR srec_motorola (5)
for a description of this file format.
.PP
The optional \f[I]width\fP argument describes the number of bytes which
form each address multiple.  For normal uses the default of one (1) byte
is appropriate.  Some systems with 16\[hy]bit or 32\[hy]bit targets mutilate the
addresses in the file; this option will correct for that.
Unlike most other parameters, this one cannot be guessed.

The \fB\-IGnore\[hy]Checksums\fP option may be used to disable checksum
validation
of input files, for those formats which have checksums at all.  Note
that the checksum values are still read in and parsed (so it is still an
error if they are missing) but their values are not checked.
Used after an input file name, the option affects that file alone;
used anywhere else on the command line, it applies to all following files.
.lf 280 ./man/man1/srec_input.1
.SS Generators
It is also possible to generate data, rather than read it from a file.
You may use a generator anywhere you could use a file.
An input generator specification looks like this:
.PP
.in +0.25i
\fB\-GENerate\fP \f[I]address\[hy]range\fP \fB\-\fP\f[I]data\[hy]source\fP
.in -0.25i
.PP
The \fB\-\fP\f[I]data\[hy]source\fP may be one of the following:
.TP 8n
\fB\-CONSTant\fP \f[I]byte\[hy]value\fP
.RS
This generator manufactures data with the given byte value of the
the given address range.
It is an error if the byte\[hy]value is not in the range 0..255.
.PP
For example, to fill memory addresses 100..199 with newlines (0x0A),
you could use a command like
.PP
.nf
.in +0.25i
.ft CW
srec_cat \-generate 100 200 \-constant 10 \-o newlines.srec
.ft P
.in -0.25i
.fi
.PP
This can, of course, be combined with data from files.
.RE
.TP 8n
\fB\-REPeat_Data\fP \f[I]byte\[hy]value\fP...
.RS
This generator manufactures data with the given byte values repeating
over the the given address range.
It is an error if any of the the byte\[hy]values are not in the range 0..255.
.PP
For example, to create a data region with 0xDE in the even bytes and 0xAD
in the odd bytes, use a generator like this:
.PP
.nf
.in +0.25i
.ft CW
srec_cat \-generate 0x1000 0x2000 \-repeat\[hy]data 0xDE 0xAD
.ft P
.in -0.25i
.fi
.PP
The repeat boundaries are aligned with the base of the address range,
modulo the number of bytes.
.RE
.TP 8n
\fB\-REPeat_String\fP \f[I]text\fP
.RS
This generator is almost identical to \-repeat\[hy]data except that the data
to be repeated is the text of the given string.
.PP
For example, to fill the holes in an EPROM image \f[I]eprom.srec\fP with the
text \(lqCopyright (C) 1812 Tchaikovsky\(rq, combine a generator and an
\-exclude filter, such as the command
.PP
.nf
.in +0.25i
.ft CW
srec_cat eprom.srec \e
    \-generate 0 0x100000 \e
        \-repeat\[hy]string 'Copyright (C) 1812 Tchaikovsky. ' \e
        \-exclude \-within eprom.srec \e
    \-o eprom.filled.srec
.ft R
.in -0.25i
.fi
.PP
The thing to note is that we have two data sources: the \f[I]eprom.srec\fP
file, and generated data over an address range which covers first
megabyte of memory but excluding areas covered by the \f[I]eprom.srec\fP data.
.RE
.TP 8n
\fB\-Litte_Endian_CONSTant\fP \f[I]value\fP \f[I]width\fP
.RS
This generator manufactures data with the given numeric value,
of a given byte width, in little\[hy]endian byte order.
It is an error if the given value does not fit into the given byte width.
It will repeat over and over within the address range range.
.PP
For example, to insert a subversion commit number
into 4 bytes at 0x0008..0x000B you would use
a command like
.PP
.nf
.in +0.25i
.ft CW
srec_cat \-generate 8 12 \-l\[hy]e\[hy]constant $VERSION 4 \e
    \-o version.srec
.ft P
.in -0.25i
.fi
.PP
This generator is a convenience wrapper around the \fB\-REPeat_Data\fP
generator.  It can, of course, be combined with data from files.
.RE
.TP 8n
\fB\-Big_Endian_CONSTant\fP \f[I]value\fP \f[I]width\fP
.RS
As above, but using big\[hy]endian byte ordering.
.RE
.PP
Anything else will result in an error.
.SS Input Filters
You may specify zero or more \f[I]filters\fP to be applied.
Filters are applied in the order the user specifies.
.\" ----------  A  ---------------------------------------------------------
.\"             and
.TP 8n
\fB\-AND\fP \f[I]value\fP
This filter may be used to bit\[hy]wise AND a \f[I]value\fP to every data byte.
This is useful if you need to clear bits.
Only existing data is altered, no holes are filled.
.\" ----------  B  ---------------------------------------------------------
.\"             big endian adler 16
.TP 8n
\fB\-Big_Endian_Adler_16\fP \f[I]address\fP
.RS
This filter may be used to insert an \[lq]Adler\[rq] 16\[hy]bit checksum
of the data into the data.
Two bytes, big\[hy]endian order, are inserted
at the address given.  Holes in the input data are ignored.  Bytes are
processed in ascending address order (\f[I]not\fP in the order they appear
in the input).
.PP
\fBNote:\fP If you have holes in your data, you will get a different
Adler checksum than if there were no holes.  This is important because
the in\[hy]memory EPROM image will not have holes.  You almost always want
to use the \fB\-fill\fP filter before any of the Adler checksum filters.
You will receive a warning if the data presented for Adler checksum has holes.
.PP
You should also be aware that the lower and upper bounds of your data
may not be the same as the lower and upper bounds of your EPROM.  This
is another reason to use the \fB\-fill\fP filter, because it will
establish the data across the full EPROM address range.

This filter may be used to insert the one's complement checksum of the

The data is literally summed; if there are duplicate bytes, this will
produce an incorrect result, if there are holes, it will be as if they were

If the data already contains bytes at the checksum location,
you need to use an exclude filter, or this will generate errors.
You need to apply and crop or fill filters before this filter.

.TP 8n
\fB\-Big_Endian_CRC16\fP \f[I]address\fP [ \f[I]modifier\fP... ]
.RS
This filter may be used to insert an industry standard 16\[hy]bit CRC checksum
of the data into the data.  Two bytes, big\[hy]endian order, are inserted
at the address given.  Holes in the input data are ignored.  Bytes are
processed in ascending address order (\f[I]not\fP in the order they appear

.PP
The following additional modifiers are understood:
.TP 8n

\fB\-Most_To_Least\fP
The CRC calculation is performed with the most significant bit in each

bit.  This is the default.
.TP 8n
\fB\-Least_To_Most\fP
The CRC calculation is performed with the least significant bit in each

\fB\-CCITT
The CCITT calculation is performed.
The initial seed is 0xFFFF.

It is possible to select seed values for \f[I]sum1\fP and \f[I]sum2\fP
in the algorithm, by adding seed values on the command line.  They each
default to 0xFF if not explicitly stated.  The default values (0) means
that an empty EPROM (all 0x00 or all 0xFF) will sum to zero; by changing
the seeds, an empty EPROM will always fail.

The third optional argument is the desired sum, when the checksum itself
is summed.  A common value is 0x0000, placed in the last two bytes of an
EPROM, so that the Fletcher 16 checksum of the EPROM is exactly 0x0000.

If you specify two number on the command line (decimal, octal and

address range.  The minimum is inclusive, the maximum is exclusive (one
more than the last address).  If the maximum is given as zero then the
range extends to the end of the address space.
.TP 8n
\fB\-Within\fP \f[I]input\[hy]specification\fP

This says to use the specified input file as a mask.  The range
includes all the places the specified input has data, and holes where
it has holes.  The input specification need not be just a file name,
it may be anything any other input specification can be.

from the minimum to the maximum address used by the input, without any
holes, even if the input has holes.  The input specification need not be
just a file name, it may be anything any other input specification can
be.

specification.

The value of this expression is the negative of the expression argument.
Note the \f[B]space\fP between the minus sign and its argument:
this space is mandatory.

\f[CW](\fP \f[I]value\fP \f[CW])\fP
You may use parentheses for grouping.
When using parentheses,
they must each be a separate command line argument,
they can't be within the text of the preceding or following option,
and you will need to quote them to get them past the shell,
such as \f[CW]'('\fP and \f[CW]')'\fP.
.TP 8n
\fB\-MINimum\[hy]Address\fP \f[I]input\[hy]specification\fP
.RS
This inserts the minimum address of the specified input file.
The input specification need not be just a file name,
it may be anything any other input specification can be.
.PP
See also the \fB\-over\fP option for a discussion on operator precedence.
.RE
.TP 8n
\fB\-MAXimum\[hy]Address\fP \f[I]input\[hy]specification\fP
.RS
This inserts the maximum address of the specified input file, plus one.
The input specification need not be just a file name,
it may be anything any other input specification can be.
.PP
See also the \fB\-over\fP option for a discussion on operator precedence.
.RE
.TP 8n
\fB\-Length\fP \f[I]input\[hy]specification\fP
.RS
This inserts the length of the address range in the specified input file,
ignoring any holes.  The input specification need not be just a file name,
it may be anything any other input specification can be.
.PP
See also the \fB\-over\fP option for a discussion on operator precedence.
.RE
.PP
For example, the \fB\-OVER\fP \f[I]input\[hy]specification\fP
option can be thought of as short\[hy]hand for
\fB'(' \-min\fP \f[I]file\fP \fB\-max\fP \f[I]file\fP \fB')'\fP,
except that it is
much easier to type, and also more efficient.
.PP
In addition, calculated values may optionally be rounded in one of three ways:
.TP 8n
\f[I]value\fP \fB\-Round_Down\fP \f[I]number\fP
The \f[I]value\fP is rounded down to the the largest integer smaller than
or equal to a whole multiple of the \f[I]number\fP.
.TP 8n
\f[I]value\fP \fB\-Round_Nearest\fP \f[I]number\fP
The \f[I]value\fP is rounded to the the nearest whole multiple of
the \f[I]number\fP.
.TP 8n
\f[I]value\fP \fB\-Round_Up\fP \f[I]number\fP
The \f[I]value\fP is rounded up to the the smallest integer larger than
or equal to a whole multiple of the \f[I]number\fP.
.PP
When using parentheses,
they must each be a separate command line argument,
they can't be within the text of the preceding or following option,
and you will need to quote them to get them past the shell,
as \f[CW]'('\fP and \f[CW]')'\fP.
