NAME
       xd - hex, octal, decimal, or ASCII dump

SYNOPSIS
       xd [ option ...	] [ -format ...	 ] [ file ...  ]

DESCRIPTION
       Xd  concatenates and dumps the 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.

       Formats other than -c are specified by pairs of characters telling size
       and style, by default.  The sizes are

       1 or b	1-byte units.

       2 or w	2-byte big-endian units.

       4 or l	4-byte big-endian units.

       8 or v	8-byte big-endian units.

       The styles are

       o
       Octal.

       x
       Hexadecimal.

       d
       Decimal.

       Other options are

       -c      Format as 1x  but  print	 ASCII	representations	 or  C	escape
	       sequences where possible.

       -R      Format  as  1x  but  print  Rune	 representations  or  C escape
	       sequences where possible.

       -astyle Print file addresses in the given style (and size 4).

       -u      (Unbuffered)  Flush  the	 output	 buffer	 after	each   16-byte
	       sequence.

       -s      Reverse	(swab)	the  order  of bytes in each group of 4 before
	       printing.

       -r      Print repeating groups of identical 16-byte  sequences  as  the
	       first group followed by an asterisk.
