FILE2C(1)                  OpenBSD Reference Manual                  FILE2C(1)

NAME
     file2c - convert file to c-source



SYNOPSIS
     file2c [string] [string]

DESCRIPTION
     The file2c utility reads a file from stdin and writes it to stdout, con-
     verting each byte to its decimal representation on the fly.

     If the first [string] is present, it is printed before the data. If the
     second [string] is present, it is printed after the data.

     This program is used to embed binary or other files into C source files,
     for instance as a char[].

EXAMPLE
     The command:

           date | file2c 'const char date[] = {' ',0};'

     will produce:

           const char date[] = {
           83,97,116,32,74,97,110,32,50,56,32,49,54,58,50,56,58,48,53,
           32,80,83,84,32,49,57,57,53,10
           ,0};
