SAC2ASC(1)             DATACENTER COMMANDS             SAC2ASC(1)



NAME
     sac2asc - Convert binary SAC file to ascii SAC file

SYNOPSIS
     sac2asc

DESCRIPTION
     The sac2asc program will convert a binary SAC file  into  an
     ASCII SAC file.  All fields and data in the SAC file will be
     converted to the appropriate ASCII representation.  See  the
     SAC  manual  for  details on the header fields.  The program
     operates as a filter -- it reads the SAC  binary  data  from
     stdin and writes the SAC ASCII output to stdout.

EXAMPLES
     sac2asc < infile.sac > outfile.ascii
          will read SAC binary data from input and write the  SAC
          ASCII output to the file outfile.sac.
