<sect>Binary format<p>
The standard binary output format generated by the linker for the Sym-1 target is a 4 kbyte machine language program. It is, of course, possible to change this behavior by using one of the different linker configs.
The output format generated by the linker for the Sym-1 target is a raw binary BIN file, which is essentially a memory image. You can convert this to a HEX file using BIN2HEX, which is a popular open-source conversion utility program. A HEX file has ASCII representations of the hexadecimal byte values of the machine-language program.

Included with this distribution is a 4k configuration file and a 32k config file. The Sym-1 on-board memory is limited to 4k but system memory can be increased to 32 kbytes of contiguous RAM with aftermarket add-on boards. So choose the config file that matches your system configuration before compiling and linking user programs.
