file2c -- convert file to c-source
file2c [string] [string]
The file2c utility reads a file from stdin and writes it to stdout, converting
each byte to its decimal representation on the fly.
If the first [string] is present, it is printed before the data; if the
second [string] is present, it is printed after the data.
This program is used to embed binary or other files into C source files,
for instance as a char[].
The command:
date | file2c 'const char date[] = {' ',0};'
will produce:
const char date[] = {
83,97,116,32,74,97,110,32,50,56,32,49,54,58,50,56,58,48,53,
32,80,83,84,32,49,57,57,53,10
,0};
