NAME
       snapconv	-- Sinclair ZX Spectrum	snapshot converter

SYNOPSIS
       snapconv	[ -c ] [ -n ] [	-f ] infile outfile

DESCRIPTION
       snapconv	converts between ZX Spectrum snapshot files.

OPTIONS
       -c     specifies	 that  all  data in the	output snapshot	should be com-
	      pressed, even if that compression	will result in a  bigger  file
	      than if some data	is left	uncompressed. This helps compatibility
	      with  some buggy programs	that can only read entirely compressed
	      .z80 files.

       -n     specifies	that the output	snapshot should	be uncompressed.

       -f     specifies	that the A and F and A'	and  F'	 registers  should  be
	      swapped.	 Version  0.5.0	 and older of libspectrum(3) had a bug
	      that resulted in these registers being swapped in	SZX  snapshots
	      only.  Version  0.5.1  and newer of libspectrum(3) automatically
	      recognise	these snapshots	and correct the	problem, but this flag
	      is necessary to fix some snapshots created by  development  ver-
	      sions only of libspectrum(3) which had the bug fixed, but	cannot
	      be distinguished from snapshots containing the bug.

       -h, --help
	      give brief usage help, listing available options.

       -V, --version
	      output version information.

       infile specifies	 the snapshot to be converted. This file can be	in any
	      of the snapshot formats supported	by libspectrum(3).

       outfile
	      specifies	the output snapshot. The format	will be	determined  by
	      the  file	 extension  and	 can be	in any of the formats libspec-
	      trum(3) supports for output.

BUGS
       None known.
