Robowar Decompiler
By Josh Goldfoot, 1993
This software is public domain. It is not copyrighted and thus may be distributed legally in any fashion.
Robowar Decompiler reads in Robowar robot files and creates text files containing well-formatted source code and hardware specifications for that robot. It works on any sort of robot, password protected or no.
To decompile a robot, launch the Decompiler. It will present you with an Open dialog box. Open a Robowar robot. After a bit, you'll be presented with a Save As dialog box, which asks for a place to put the decompiled code in a text file format.
While the sequence of instructions will be preserved, any label names or comments in the original source code will be lost. Label names are assigned from a predefined list that includes, among other things, letters in the Greek alphabet, operas from Wagner's Ring cycle, and Yale residential college names. Variables (a, b, c, etc.), however, are preserved.
