Sorry, you've pretty much gone beyond my expertise...
The SREC format is basically an ASCII representation of
the binary that needs to be downloaded prefixed with
the addresses, if I remember right. You could probably
reverse engineer the format to produce an actual binary
again. Or look into the ELF format...although it may
be relocatable.
From cygwin or *nix you can use "od -x" to see a hexdump
of any file.

Thanks.
I have a mote with ATTiny2313 integrated on the same board. The idea is
provide automatic update for the microcontroller software. ATTiny
receives the new software from microcontroller, save it on an at45
flash, and then reprogram the mcu with this new soft. I need the binary
to send small packets to mcu, who send this to ATTiny. The s record or
intel hex are too big and need processing for create binary data. How I
do this hex dumping?

Asunto: Re: [Tinyos-help] Compile to binary
I would suppose that it is a loader format, probably ELF,
and contains all kinds of extra stuff like symbols. Try
hex dumping it to see what's there...
But to get it to the mote you generally need an "SREC" format,
at least that's what micas want, and it looks like tmotes have
embedded something like it in their tos_image.xml files.
If you use the standard TOS makefiles these files should
be generated for you. Then it's a matter of downloading
to the controllers, for which TOS conveniently provides
programs.
If you follow along on the tutorial path you will find
make [platform] -- to produce the binaries
make [platform] install -- to download them
Is that not working for you?
