COMMANDS:
[NO] ADDRESS (WORDS EXIST IN IMAGE FILES)
When converting to IMAGE-BINARY files, the
first two bytes of each record are ignored.
When converting from IMAGE-BINARY, two bytes
of address are inserted at the beginning of
each record.
CONVERT (FILE) <input-file-spec> (OUTPUT AS)
<output-file-spec>
Converts the specified input file group to
the output file group, in the mode determined
by the MODE command or the input file.
Default output file spec is same as input
file spec, next highest generation.

CARRIAGE-RETURN-SINGLE-SPACE]
Selects whether <CR><LF> should be inserted,
removed, or converted to <CR><DC3> at the end
of formatted ASCII records. DEFAULT is

which assume IMBEDDED, and .LST file types
which assume CARRIAGE-RETURN-SINGLE-SPACE.

7-BIT-ASCII
DOS-BINARY
DEFAULT
IMAGE-BINARY

file. DEFAULT output mode is selected by a
mapping from the mode of the current input
file.

converted from IMAGE-BINARY format. Default

[NO] TEMPORARY (OUTPUT FILES)
If specified, all output files (see CONVERT
command) are made as temporary files. Thi is useful to retain the same name of a file
being converted to RSX format, yet keep the
old file after an EXPUNGE. This feature is
not supported in the TOPS-10 version of
RSXFMT.
