SYNOPSIS
========
cart *romfile* *cartfile* *carttype*
cart **-l**
cart **-p** *romfile*
DESCRIPTION
===========
**cart** creates an Atari800 CART image file from a raw Atari 8-bit ROM
image file by adding a 16-byte **CART** header.
The *romfile* is a file containing a raw Atari 8-bit ROM image
dump. It must be of the correct size for the *carttype* argument
(e.g. for type 1, "Standard 8KB cartridge", the file must be exactly
8192 bytes).
Output is written to *cartfile*. This must be a different filename
from *romfile* (in-place conversion is not supported). *cartfile* will
be exactly 16 bytes longer than *romfile* (e.g. for type 1, it will be
8208 bytes).
The *carttype* argument is numeric, one of the supported types. The
list can be viewed with **cart -l**. If you're not sure of the correct
type for a given ROM, you can narrow it down by running **cart -p**
*romfile*, which will show all the possible types that match the size
of the ROM.
There is no corresponding tool to convert a CART image back to a raw
ROM file, but this can be done with e.g. **dd**\(1)::
dd if=image.cart of=image.raw bs=1 skip=16
...or **head**\(1) and **cat**\(1)::
cat image.cart | ( head -c16 >/dev/null ; cat ) > image.raw
OPTIONS
=======
-l Show the complete list of supported cartridge types.
-p *romfile*
Show the list of cartridge types that match the size of *romfile*.
