thanks for all the help. i decided to take the pill and coded all the fprintfs by hand. here's the result. usually i'd stick to a higher level languag, but i need C's inline assembly support: struct Header { u_int8_t rom_entry[4]; u_int8_t nintendo_logo[156]; u_char game_title[12]; u_char game_code[4]; u_char maker_code[2]; u_int8_t fixed_val; u_int8_t unit_code; u_int8_t device_type; u_int8_t reserved_area1[7]; u_int8_t software_version; u_int8_t complement_check; u_int8_t reserved_area2; u_int8_t ram_entry[4]; u_int8_t boot_mode; u_int8_t slave_id; u_int8_t unused_area[26]; u_int8_t joybus_entry[4]; }; struct Header * hdr = rom; int i; fprintf(stderr, "ROM Entry: 0x"); for (i=0; i < 4; i++) fprintf(stderr, "%x", hdr->rom_entry[i]); fprintf(stderr, "\nNintendo Logo: 0x"); for (i=0; i < sizeof(hdr->nintendo_logo); i++) fprintf(stderr, "%x", hdr->nintendo_logo[i]); fprintf(stderr, "\nGame Title: %s", hdr->game_title); fprintf(stderr, "\nGame Code: %s", hdr->game_code); fprintf(stderr, "\nMaker Code: %s", hdr->maker_code); fprintf(stderr, "\nFixed Value: 0x"); fprintf(stderr, "%x", hdr->fixed_val); fprintf(stderr, "\nUnit Code: 0x"); fprintf(stderr, "%x", hdr->unit_code); fprintf(stderr, "\nDevice Type: 0x"); fprintf(stderr, "%x", hdr->device_type); fprintf(stderr, "\nReserved Area: 0x"); for (i=0; i < sizeof(hdr->reserved_area1); i++) fprintf(stderr, "%x", hdr->reserved_area1[i]); fprintf(stderr, "\nSoftware Version: 0x"); fprintf(stderr, "%x", hdr->software_version); fprintf(stderr, "\nComplement Check: 0x"); fprintf(stderr, "%x", hdr->complement_check); fprintf(stderr, "\nReserved Area: 0x"); fprintf(stderr, "%x", hdr->reserved_area2); fprintf(stderr, "\nRAM Entry Point: 0x"); for (i=0; i < sizeof(hdr->ram_entry); i++) fprintf(stderr, "%x", hdr->ram_entry[i]); fprintf(stderr, "\nBoot Mode: 0x"); fprintf(stderr, "%x", hdr->boot_mode); fprintf(stderr, "\nSlave ID: 0x"); fprintf(stderr, "%x", hdr->slave_id); fprintf(stderr, "\nUnused Area: 0x"); for (i=0; i < sizeof(hdr->unused_area); i++) fprintf(stderr, "%x", hdr->unused_area[i]); fprintf(stderr, "\nJoybus Entry Point: 0x"); for (i=0; i < sizeof(hdr->joybus_entry); i++) fprintf(stderr, "%x", hdr->joybus_entry[i]); cheers.
