Just typing map without any arguments should print the usage string on
screen. Taking it from the binary is the hard way to do it ;-).

Yep. At that time I was a C++ programmer, so ASCII C seemed to be the right
tool to use.

Just take a look at the sourcecode of map (that's all the information I
have, my original notes and design papers did disappear). Sorry for only
releasing an old 0.9 beta version (code looks awful kludgy). The original
sources of version 1.1 disappeared (too) during some reorganization of
harddisk space.

You're free to distribute this sourcecode and make changes to it.

The sourcecode of NDFISK (written in assembly) should be available via
Roderik Muit (the author).
