/* MSMKBOO.C
*
* This program takes a file and encodes it into printable characters.
* These printable files can then be decoded by the programs MSPCBOOT.BAS
* or MSPCTRAN.BAS as the need may be. The file is encoded by taking
* three consecutive eight bit bytes and dividing them into four six bit
* bytes. An ASCII zero was then added to the resulting four characters.
* to make them all printable ASCII characters in the range of the
* character zero to the character underscore. In order to reduce the
* size of the file null repeat count was used. The null repeat count
* compresses up to 78 consecutive nulls into only two characters. This
* is done by using the character tilde (~) as an indication that a group
* of repetitive nulls has occured. The character following the tilde is
* number of nulls in the group. The number is also converted in to a
* printable character by adding an ASCII zero. The highest number of
* nulls is therefore the highest printable character tilde. This is
* equal to tilde minus zero nulls or 78 nulls. Because of the three
* byte to four byte encoding the repeat counting can only start with
* the first character of a three byte triplet.
*
* This C program was written specifically for the DEC-20 and as such
* will not easily be transported to another system. The main problem
* lies in the file I/O routines. It is necessary to make sure that
* untranslated eight bit bytes are input from the input file. The
* main change would be to make the OPEN statement reflect this for
* your particular system and brand of UNIX and C. The rest of the
* program should be transportable with little or no problems.

/* This routine does the actual three character to four character encoding.

* first input character. The second output character is made from the
* remaining two low order bits of the first input character and the first
* four high order bits of the second input character. The third output
* character is built from the last four low order bits of the second input
* character and the two high order bits of the third input character. The
* fourth and last output character consists of the six low order bit of
* the third input character. In this way the three eight bit input char-
* acters (for a total of 24 bits) are divided into four six bit output
* characters (also for a total of 24 bits). In order to make the four
* output characters printable an ASCII zero is then added to each of them.
