  Hideur Maikeur 1.0

  Compiled under Kro$ Visual C++ (that's why it cost 100kb)

Note : Sorry for the fault, I'm not English :-P


  'Raison d'etre' of the program.
  ---------------------

    Hideur Maikeur is a small program who converts a
  'Dos' file into an Amsdos file  by  inserting a header Amsdos.
 
    Well, but what's the use of an header ? it allows Amsdos
  to determinate :
        * its id of user,
        * its filename,
        * its type (basic, binary, protected or not),
        * its size,
        * its adress of loading in memory,
        * its adresse of execution.
  (sorry for the CPC masters if i didn't respect the order!)

    The bytes of the header are added and stored into it, it's the checksum. 
    The header allows amsdos to load the file by a RUN", LOAD"... or any system 
  Amsdos call.
  
    This soft is a small complement for CPC FS because this one didn't
  allows such insertion of header,and use it seems better than using a Hex editor
  with a calculator (yes, believe me :-))


  Use
  ----

   Hideur Maikeur have too parameters :

        * Dos File : source file to convert,
        * Amsdos File : amsdos file obtained (optionnal).

     If you don't give Amsdos file output (Unca Scrooge !), Dos File is storedin a 
   Backup file and become the output file (src file will be also the backup file).
