BBC Executable to ScottFree convertor
=====================================

Written by Dave Lodge (jourgamund@hotmail.com)

This program takes a BBC B or Electron executable of a Scott Adams/Brian
Howarth adventure and turns it into a file usable by ScottFree...

The Program is distributed under the GPL.

Thanks to Paul David Doherty, Alan Cox and of course Scott Adams and Brian
Howarth...

To use
======

The syntax is:

   beeb2sf [flags] <infile> [outfile]

If [outfile] is left out then all output is written to stdout...

The flags are:
   -h|-?      - help screen
   -s         - show headers only
   -v         - verbose

The flags DON'T have to be before the filenames...          

eg: These are all equivalent
   sna2sf -v spiderman.bbc spiderman.sf
   sna2sf spiderman.bbc -v > spiderman.sf
   sna2sf spiderman.bbc spiderman.sf -v
   

It is advised that you use the -s flag before doing a real conversion; and
check that the headers look about right before converting.

Engines

the following names:

the program was written for them :-)
