NAME
       snapconv — Sinclair ZX Spectrum snapshot converter

SYNOPSIS
       snapconv [ -c ] [ -n ] [ -f ] infile outfile

DESCRIPTION
       snapconv converts between ZX Spectrum snapshot files.

OPTIONS
       -c     specifies	 that  all  data in the output snapshot should be com‐
	      pressed, even if that compression will result in a  bigger  file
	      than if some data is left uncompressed. This helps compatibility
	      with some buggy programs that can only read entirely  compressed
	      .z80 files.

       -n     specifies that the output snapshot should be uncompressed.

       -f     specifies	 that  the  A  and F and A' and F' registers should be
	      swapped.	Version 0.5.0 and older of libspectrum(3)  had	a  bug
	      that  resulted in these registers being swapped in SZX snapshots
	      only. Version 0.5.1 and newer  of	 libspectrum(3)	 automatically
	      recognise these snapshots and correct the problem, but this flag
	      is necessary to fix some snapshots created by  development  ver‐
	      sions only of libspectrum(3) which had the bug fixed, but cannot
	      be distinguished from snapshots containing the bug.

       infile specifies the snapshot to be converted. This file can be in  any
	      of the snapshot formats supported by libspectrum(3).

       outfile
	      specifies	 the output snapshot. The format will be determined by
	      the file extension and can be in any  of	the  formats  libspec‐
	      trum(3) supports for output.

BUGS
       None known.
