How to read from a Flash and write back to it with Nios Command Shell?

[wyue01]

According to the ug_nios2_flash_programmer.pdf,

I have read the data（current.srec） from flash.

And  then I want to ​ write the current.srec  back to flash.

while the ug_nios2_flash_programmer.pdf says, when program a flash,　I need a .flash file.

Is it necessary to convert the .srec file to .flash file?

if it is necessary, could you give me a sample(command)?

Or any other way to read from a Flash and write back to it?
