(synopsis "Convert between ASCII, hexadecimal and binary representations")
(description "The two programs are useful for generating test data, for
inspecting binary files, and for interfacing programs that generate textual
output to programs that require binary input and conversely. They can also be
useful when it is desired to reformat numbers.
@itemize
@item @command{ascii2binary} reads input consisting of ascii or hexadecimal
representation numbers separated by whitespace and produces as output
the binary equivalents. The type and precision of the binary output
is selected using command line flags.
@item @command{binary2ascii} reads input consisting of binary numbers
and converts them to their ascii or hexadecimal representation.
Command line flags specify the type and size of the binary numbers
and provide control over the format of the output.
Unsigned integers may be written out in binary, octal, decimal,
or hexadecimal.
Signed integers may be written out only in binary or decimal. Floating
point numbers may be written out only decimal, either in standard or
scientific notation. (If you want to examine the binary representation
of floating point numbers, just treat the input as a sequence of unsigned
characters.)
