💖 SCRIPTOR(1) 💖

ok so bestie, we're in the General Commands Manual section, and this lil cutie is called scriptor — a Perl script that sends commands to a smart card. yes. that's the whole vibe. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

scriptor — a Perl script to send commands to a smart card 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

scriptor [-h] [-r reader] [-p protocol] [-u] [file]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

This manual page documents briefly the scriptor command. lowkey a little summary moment, and that's fine 💅

scriptor is a program that sends commands to a smart card using a batch file or stdin. that's it. that's the whole job. iconic behaviour honestly 👑

💅 OPTIONS 💅

A description of options is included below. buckle up, there's not that many, we can do this together 🍓

  • -h — Show summary of options. your lil help menu bestie ✨
  • -r reader — Use the indicated reader. By default the first PC/SC reader is used. so if you don't pick one, it just grabs whoever showed up first to the party 💀
  • -p protocol — Use the indicated protocol. Accepted values are T=0 and T=1. By default T=0 is used. only those two, no negotiating 🚫
  • -u — Use unbuffered stdout. for when you simply cannot wait for the buffer to flush, periodt 🌈
  • file — Use the file instead of stdin to read commands (APDUs). so like, read from a file instead of you typing it all in, thank god 😭

The commands are of the form:

CLA INS P1 P2 Lc [data] [le]
reset
# comment

Example:

# reset the card
reset

# Select MF 3F00
A0 A4 00 00 02 3F 00

# Get Response
# 17 is the value of second SW from the previous command
A0 C0 00 00 17

# Select DF Telecom (7F10)
A0 A4 00 00 02 7F 10

# Get Response
A0 C0 00 00 17

# Select EF_ADN (6F3A) (Abbreviated Dialing Numbers)
A0 A4 00 00 02 6F 3A

# Get Response
A0 C0 00 00 0F

ok literally look at those comments doing the absolute most to explain themselves, we stan a self-documenting batch file 💖
