     PNCH(4)                                                   PNCH(4)



     NAME
          pnch - file format for card images

     DESCRIPTION
          The PNCH format is a convenient representation for files
          consisting of card images in an arbitrary code.

          A PNCH file is a simple concatenation of card records.  A
          card record consists of a single control byte followed by a
          variable number of data bytes.  The control byte specifies
          the number (which must lie in the range 0-80) of data bytes
          that follow.  The data bytes are 8-bit codes that constitute
          the card image.  If there are fewer than 80 data bytes, it
          is understood that the remainder of the card image consists
          of trailing blanks.
