hexidecimal dump utility                        Class: Unix

NAME
    HD                              Hexidecimal data dump

SYNOPSIS
    hd [-vg08crtdox[bwl]] [<file/->] [<offset>]

DESCRIPTION
    This routine permits viewing a file in either hexidecimal, decimal or
    octal raw form. If a file is not specified the stdin is used. This
    permits HD to be inserted in a pipeline from another program.
    The output may be either byte, word, long int or char oriented.

FLAGS
    -v      verbose: show names for communication characters (eg Ctrl F = ack)
    -g      graphic: show actual graphic characters
    -0      list offset in decimal
    -8      list offset in octal    (default is hexidecimal)

    -c      bytes in ascii (where possible) must be set for -v or -g
    -r      show repeated regions   (defaults to reducing repeats to '*')
    -t      open in translate mode

    -d      decimal data
    -o      octal data
    -x      hexidecmal data         (default)

     b      byte mode
     w      word mode
     l      long int mode

EXAMPLE
    od -cr0xb   file.txt

    shows "file" with characterd and hexideciaml bytes. Repeats shown.
    Offsets numbered in decimal.
