2ASCII is a binary-to-text encoding utility and format for DOS. It was developed by Arminio Grgic.

Contents

Format details

An encoded file is in the form of a DEBUG script. To decode, feed it into the DEBUG utility included with MS-DOS.

For decoding to work, the encoded file must be named exactly "2ASCII.BIN". The encoder does not enforce this.

There is a multi-part mode, which generates multiple output files. The parts must be concatenated manually before decoding.

Identification

For v2.0, at least, an encoded file starts with ASCII "n-- 2ASCII".
