# mopa.out(1)

Create MOP image from a a.out file

## NAME

**mopa.out** – Create MOP image from a a.out file

## SYNOPSIS

**mopa.out** *infile* *outfile*

## DESCRIPTION

**mopa.out** is used to convert an a.out file to a MOP-image.

This program will check if [a.out(5)](/a.out/5.md) machine-id is recognized. If not it will try to swap the [a.out(5)](/a.out/5.md) header, and try again.

## BUGS

This program only supports the VAX machine-id for now.

## SEE ALSO
