NAME
inp41 - a filter to decode an HP41 hexadecimal program
SYNOPSIS
inp41 < input_device_or_file > output_file
DESCRIPTION
The HP41C Extended I/O Module contains 2 commands, INP and
OUTP which translate HP41 programs (stored in the
calculator's program memory) into a hexadecimal byte stream
for transmission to other computers.
inp41 reads such a hexadecimal file from standard input
(which may be redirected from, for example, a serial port
connected to the HP41 via an HP82164 RS232 interface),
decodes it and writes the binary program to standard output.
At the end of the transfer, the message checksum good or
checksum bad is written to standard error as appropriate.

REFERENCES
The format of this hexadecimal stream is essentially
undocumented and was discovered by experiment. The format is
given in the comments at the start of the source file
