XX34 is a binary-to-text encoding utility and format. It was developed by Guy McLoughlin.
[edit] Discussion
XX34 was sometimes used in the SWAG collection of Pascal source code (see SWG), to work around its requirement that each item be a single text file.
- For some info about using XX34 with SWAG, see swag9705.zip → READER.DOC, section named "XX3402 ENCODED FILES".
- Examples that use XX34: [1], [2], [3]
[edit] Identification
Encoded files are observed to begin with bytes 0d 0a 0d 0a 2a 58 58 33 34, which contains the string "*XX34".
[edit] Software
- XX34 v0.1
- XX34 v0.2 (DOS binary + source code)
