uconv - convert FORTRAN unformatted file

Showing IRIX 6.5.30 (default release). Last changed in IRIX 6.5.19.

NAME
     uconv - convert FORTRAN unformatted file

SYNOPSIS
     uconv [-ic] [file1] [-r num] [-o file2]

DESCRIPTION
     uconv converts a FORTRAN unformatted data file either from IRIS Series
     2000 or IRIS Series 3000 FORTRAN form to IRIS-4D Series FORTRAN form,
     or vice versa.  uconv allows FORTRAN users to port their otherwise
     non-portable data files opened as FORM=UNFORMATTED.

     The uconv command has the following options:

     -i   Identifies the input file as an IRIS Series 2000 or IRIS Series
          3000 FORTRAN unformatted data file.  This is the default.  Note:
          the -c option may not be specified with this option.

     -c   Identifies the input file as an IRIS-4D Series FORTRAN
          unformatted data file.  Note: the -i option may not be specified
          with this option.

     -r num
          Identifies the input and output files as FORTRAN unformatted
          direct access data files, with record length num.  Absence of
          this switch identifies the files as FORTRAN unformatted
          sequential access data files.

     file1
          The input file to be converted.  Default is stdin.

     -o file2
          Specifies the output file to be created.  file2 must not exist.
          If this option is absent, output is printed to stdout.

NOTES
     uconv can not convert IRIS Series 2000 or IRIS Series 3000 FORTRAN
     data files opened as FORM=BINARY.  uconv can not convert IRIS Series
     2000 or IRIS Series 3000 FORTRAN data files opened as FORM=UNFORMATTED
     with the $BINARY option.
