lifmod - reads contents and info of HP-41 module files
lifmod [-v] [-f] [-e] [-l] <Module file>
lifmod -?
lifmod displays and/or extracts information of a module file. A module file has a special binary format defined for the HP-41 which is inspired how actual plug in modules look like. A mod file describes the contents of a physical plug in module. Like real plug in modules, module files can contain multiple 4K rom pages.
Without any options specified, lifmod displays the title and the author of the module.
