NAME

ptbl - print a type table

SYNOPSIS

ptbl [-a] <tbl-file>

DESCRIPTION

ptbl prints the give type table to stdout. It will print it in one of two formats: internal style and ASN.1 stlye. The internal style shows the contents of the type table data structure in ASN.1 value notation. You will need to look at the tbl.asn1 file to understand the internal form. The ASN.1 form attempts to re-create the ASN.1 that generated the given type table.

OPTIONS
