It decodes from +standard input to standard output. + +Example usage: + + awk -f b91dec.awk < file.b91 > file.bin + or + ./b91dec.awk < file.b91 > file.bin + + +Be careful on non-Unix systems! - During output, some ported versions of awk +automatically convert byte values of 0x0A to the native line break sequence of +the host system (e.g. 0x0D 0x0A under DOS/Windows). This can result in corrupt +binary files. +You should test on some examples and compare the output of b91dec.awk with the +original data before relying on it. |
