.SH NAME
chkbas \- check and detokenize Atari BASIC SAVEd files
.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
chkbas [\fB\-atari\fP] [\fB\-short\fP] [\fB\-verbose\fP] [\fB\-noinverse\fP] [\fB\-tbs\fP | \fB\-bxl\fP | \fB\-bxe\fP] \fBbasic\-file\fP [\fBoutput\-file\fP]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
\fBchkbas\fP detokenizes Atari 8\-bit BASIC SAVEd files. It lists the BASIC
code in human\-readable form, and gives some other useful information
about the program.
.sp
\fBbasic\-file\fP is an Atari BASIC, TurboBASIC, BASIC XL, or BASIC
XE program. Output will go to \fBoutput\-file\fP, if given; otherwise,
standard output. If \fBbasic\-file\fP is anything other than standard
Atari BASIC, the BASIC dialect must be specified (see \fBOPTIONS\fP,
below).
.sp
Sample run, with no options:
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
.sp

.SH OPTIONS
.SS Input Options
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \fB\-tbs\fP
Treat input as a Turbo BASIC program.
.TP
.B \fB\-bxl\fP
Treat input as a BASIC XL program.
.TP
.B \fB\-bxe\fP
Treat input as a BASIC XE program, which may or may not be EXTENDed
with code in the extra XE banks.
.UNINDENT
.SS Output Options
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \fB\-atari\fP
Output only the program listing, with lines terminated by Atari
EOL characters (\fB$9B\fP).
.TP
.B \fB\-short\fP
Output only the program listing, with lines terminated by the
system default newline character(s), e.g. \fBn\fP on UNIX\-like OSes,
\fBrn\fP on MS\-DOS or Windows.
.TP
.B \fB\-verbose\fP
Program listing will be interspersed with per\-line and per\-statement
low\-level information. This option is probably most useful for debugging
\fBchkbas\fP itself.
.UNINDENT
.SH EXIT STATUS
.sp
Zero for success, non\-zero for failure.
