'''COM2TXT''' by Dandler Productions is a DOS utility that converts a [[DOS executable (.com)|COM file]] to one whose bytes are mostly printable ASCII, and which has the same functionality.

== Discussion ==
'''Caution:''' We have no reason to think that COM2TXT is itself malware, but its terms of use say that it "can be used by viruswriters - crackers - hackers - virustraders only." So, any files made by it should be treated with suspicion.

== Identification ==
For one thing, in a generated file, ASCII "{{magic|DA&#x3d;ND&#x3d;LE&#x3d;R!}}" appears at offset 20.

== Software ==
* COM2TXT v1.0: {{CdTextfiles|cuteskunk/unsorted2/mags/lt1.zip|lt1.zip}} → COM2TX10.ZIP
