NAME

     hdump - displays (dumps) binary contents of a file

SYNOPSIS

     hdump [ options ] [ file [ starting_address[.][b|B] count  ]
     ] ]

DESCRIPTION

     Hdump displays the contents of a file in 16-bit words unless
     otherwise  specified  (see options below). It dumps the data
     in  hexadecimal  unless  otherwise  specified  (see  options
     below).

     Hdump assumes the starting address  and  the  count  are  in
     decimal  unless  there is a leading 0--interpreted as octal,
     or a leading 0x--interpreted as hexadecimal (as in  C).   If
     the  starting  address  is  followed by a 'b', the number is
     multiplied by 512, if the starting address is followed by  a
     'B', the number is multiplied by 1024.


     The output radix of the label is hexadecimal by default  and
     may  be  modified  by the radix of the starting_address.  If
     the starting_address is specified in hexadecimal, the  label
     will    be    displayed   in   hexadecimal   too,   if   the
     starting_address is specified in octal, the  label  will  be
     displayed  in  octal.   A decimal radix of the label will be
     displayed if the starting_address is followed by a dot.

OPTIONS

     -a    Display content also in characters

     -b    Display content in bytes

     -c    Display content in quoted characters

     -d    Display content in decimal

     -f    Display content longs as floats

     -F    Display content double longs as doubles

     -l    Display content as longs

     -o    Display content in octal

     -u    Display content as unsigned

     -v    Show all data even if it is identical


     Address  label  radix  depends  on  starting  address  radix
     (decimal if ends with .)
