.TH XD 1 .CT 1 files .SH NAME xd, od \(mi hex, octal, decimal, or ASCII dump .SH SYNOPSIS .B xd [ .I option ... ] [ .BI - "format ... ] [ .I file ... ] .PP .B od [ .B -bcdox ] [ .I file ] [ .BI + offset ] .SH DESCRIPTION .I Xd concatenates and dumps the .I files (standard input by default) in one or more formats. Groups of 16 bytes are printed in each of the named formats, one format per line. Each line of output is prefixed by its address (byte offset) in the input file. The first line of output for each group is zero-padded; subsequent are blank-padded. .PP Formats other than .B -c are specified by pairs of characters telling size and style, .L 4x by default. The sizes are .TP \w'2\ or\ w\ \ \ 'u .BR 1 " or " b 1-byte units. .PD0 .TP .BR 2 " or " w 2-byte units. .TP .BR 4 " or " l 4-byte units. .PD .PP The styles are .TP \w'2\ or\ w\ \ \ 'u .B o Octal. .PD0 .TP .B x Hexadecimal. .TP .B d Decimal. .PD .PP Other options are .TP .B -c Format as .B 1x but print .SM ASCII representations or C escape sequences where possible. .TP .BI -a style Print file addresses in the given style (and size 4). .TP .B -s Reverse (swab) the order of bytes in each group of 4 before printing. .TP .B -r Print repeating groups of identical 16-byte sequences as the first group followed by an asterisk. .PP .I Od dumps a .I file or the standard input in one or more formats as selected by the first argument, octal by default. .PP The format characters mean .TP .B b Bytes in octal. .PD0 .TP .B c Bytes in .SM ASCII with C escapes and 3-digit octal for other characters. .TP .B d 16-bit words in decimal. .TP .B o 16-bit words in octal. .TP .B x 16-bit words in hex. .PP The .I offset argument tells where in the file to begin dumping. The offset, normally interpreted in octal, is interpreted in hexadecimal if it begins with .L x or .LR 0x , and in decimal if it ends with .L . or .LR .b . If it ends in .LR b , it is multiplied by 512. The preceding .BR + may be omitted if .I file is present. .SH "SEE ALSO" .IR adb (1), .IR strings (1), .IR vis (1) .SH BUGS The various output formats don't line up properly in the output of .I xd. .br A spurious zero byte reported by .I od at the end of odd-length files is betrayed by the correctly printed final address. .br The .I offset is ineffectual if .IR lseek (2) won't work on the .I file. .br On some raw devices offsets must be a multiple of the natural block size.
