.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Most programs involved with the EM project only produce and accept
|
|
EM programs in compact form.
|
|
These files are only machine readable.
|
|
A description of this compact form can be found in [1].
|
|
To inspect the code produced by compilers or to patch them for one reason
|
|
or another, human readable assembly code is needed.
|
|
Em_decode produces human readable assembly code from the compact form.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Em_decode accepts the normal compact form in both optimized and
|
|
unoptimized form.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Em_encode produces the compact form
|
|
out of these human readable assembly code.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The first argument is the input file.
|
|
The second argument is the output file.
|
|
Both programs can act as a filter.
