-
- o ValCon arguments :
-
- ("?" gets the program format.)
-
- <[|H|B|O]value> : the value to convert can be given in all the
- supported number systems. To indicate in which
- number system the value is given, you have to
- preceed the value by one of the following
- identifiers : - '', 'd' or 'D' : decimal;
- - 'h' or 'H' : hexadecimal;
- - 'b' or 'B' : binary;
- - 'o' or 'O' : octal.
-
- | E.g. 'ValCon hA100' results in :
- | Hex: A100
- | -> Dec: 41216
- | -> Bin: 1010000100000000
- | -> Oct: 120400
-
- NOTE : by default, ValCon will convert the value in the other
- three number systems, unless you use the following four
- options.
-
- [DEC] : give the value as a decimal value.
-
- [HEX] : give the value as a hexadecimal value.
-
- [BIN] : give the value as a binary value.
-
- [OCT] : give the value as an octal value.
-
- [RETURN] : output the converted value, as a single value.
- E.g. 'Valcon 250 HEX RETURN' will output only
- 'FA'.
-
- [VERSION] : print the program's copyright and version.
