5CV(10.1)

NAME

5cv − executable conversion utility for Arm

SYNOPSIS

5cv [ option ...  ] executable outfile

DESCRIPTION

5cv copies the executable into the named outfile, converting the header into a variety of disparate formats. The type of conversion is controlled by the -H option. The possibilities are:

-H1 AIF for RISCOS. 

-H2 Plan 9. 

-H3 Boot for NetBSD. 

-H4 Headerless, stripped, and padded to 2K in length. Used for the ROM resident serial boostrap loader in a Cirrus EP72xx

-H5 Headerless, and stripped, for general use. 

-H6 EPOC IMG format. Not a complete conversion, currently sufficient for use with some NT based downloaders which autosense the file type by the "EP" signature, and then ignore the contents of the header. 

The other options are:

-s Strip symbol table. 

-Dn Enables debug output.
