5CV(10.1)                                               5CV(10.1)

     NAME
          5cv - executable conversion utility for Arm

     SYNOPSIS
          5cv [ option ... ] executable outfile

     DESCRIPTION
          5cv copies the executable into the named outfile, converting
          the header into a variety of disparate formats.  The type of
          conversion is controlled by the -H option. The possibilities
          are:

          -H1       AIF for RISCOS.

          -H2       Plan 9.

          -H3       Boot for NetBSD.

          -H4       Headerless, stripped, and padded to 2K in length.
                    Used for the ROM resident serial boostrap loader
                    in a Cirrus EP72xx

          -H5       Headerless, and stripped, for general use.

          -H6       EPOC IMG format. Not a complete conversion, cur-
                    rently sufficient for use with some NT based down-
                    loaders which autosense the file type by the "EP"
                    signature, and then ignore the contents of the
                    header.

          The other options are:

          -s        Strip symbol table.

          -Dn       Enables debug output.
