.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The hexdump utility is a filter which displays the specified files, or
|
|
the standard input, if no files are specified, in a user specified
|
|
format.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Fl
|
|
.It Fl b
|
|
.Em One-byte octal display .
|
|
Display the input offset in hexadecimal, followed by sixteen
|
|
space-separated, three column, zero-filled, bytes of input data,
|
|
in octal, per line.
|
|
.It Fl c
|
|
.Em One-byte character display .
|
|
Display the input offset in hexadecimal, followed by sixteen
|
|
space-separated, three column, space-filled, characters of input
|
|
data per line.
|
|
.It Fl d
|
|
.Em Two-byte decimal display.
|
|
Display the input offset in hexadecimal, followed by eight
|
|
space-separated, five column, zero-filled, two-byte units
|
|
of input data, in unsigned decimal, per line.
|
|
.It Fl e Ar format_string
|
|
Specify a format string to be used for displaying data.
|
|
.It Fl f Ar format_file
|
|
Specify a file that contains one or more newline separated format strings.
|
|
Empty lines and lines whose first non-blank character is a hash mark
|
|
.Pf ( Cm \&# )
|
|
are ignored.
|
|
.It Fl n Ar length
|
|
Interpret only
|
|
.Ar length
|
|
bytes of input.
|
|
.It Fl o
|
|
.Em Two-byte octal display.
|
|
Display the input offset in hexadecimal, followed by eight
|
|
space-separated, six column, zero-filled, two byte quantities of
|
|
input data, in octal, per line.
|
|
.It Fl s Ar offset
|
|
Skip
|
|
.Ar offset
|
|
bytes from the beginning of the input.
|
|
By default,
|
|
.Ar offset
|
|
is interpreted as a decimal number.
|
|
With a leading
|
|
.Cm 0x
|
|
or
|
|
.Cm 0X ,
|
|
.Ar offset
|
|
is interpreted as a hexadecimal number,
|
|
otherwise, with a leading
|
|
.Cm 0 ,
|
|
.Ar offset
|
|
is interpreted as an octal number.
|
|
Appending the character
|
|
.Cm b ,
|
|
.Cm k ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Cm m
|
|
to
|
|
.Ar offset
|
|
causes it to be interpreted as a multiple of
|
|
.Li 512 ,
|
|
.Li 1024 ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Li 1048576 ,
|
|
respectively.
|
|
.It Fl v
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl v
|
|
option causes hexdump to display all input data.
|
|
Without the
|
|
.Fl v
|
|
option, any number of groups of output lines, which would be
|
|
identical to the immediately preceding group of output lines (except
|
|
for the input offsets), are replaced with a line comprised of a
|
|
single asterisk.
|
|
.It Fl x
|
|
.Em Two-byte hexadecimal display.
|
|
Display the input offset in hexadecimal, followed by eight, space
|
|
separated, four column, zero-filled, two-byte quantities of input
|
|
data, in hexadecimal, per line.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For each input file,
|
|
.Nm hexdump
|
|
sequentially copies the input to standard output, transforming the
|
|
data according to the format strings specified by the
|
|
.Fl e
|
|
and
|
|
.Fl f
|
|
options, in the order that they were specified.
|
|
.Ss Formats
|
|
A format string contains any number of format units, separated by
|
|
whitespace.
|
|
A format unit contains up to three items: an iteration count, a byte
|
|
count, and a format.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The iteration count is an optional positive integer, which defaults to
|
|
one.
|
|
Each format is applied iteration count times.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The byte count is an optional positive integer.
|
|
If specified it defines the number of bytes to be interpreted by
|
|
each iteration of the format.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If an iteration count and/or a byte count is specified, a single slash
|
|
must be placed after the iteration count and/or before the byte count
|
|
to disambiguate them.
|
|
Any whitespace before or after the slash is ignored.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The format is required and must be surrounded by double quote
|
|
(" ") marks.
|
|
It is interpreted as a fprintf-style format string (see
|
|
.Xr fprintf 3 ) ,
|
|
with the
|
|
following exceptions:
|
|
.Bl -bullet -offset indent
|
|
.It
|
|
An asterisk (*) may not be used as a field width or precision.
|
|
.It
|
|
A byte count or field precision
|
|
.Em is
|
|
required for each ``s'' conversion
|
|
character (unlike the
|
|
.Xr fprintf 3
|
|
default which prints the entire string if the precision is unspecified).
|
|
.It
|
|
The conversion characters ``h'', ``l'', ``n'', ``p'' and ``q'' are
|
|
not supported.
|
|
.It
|
|
The single character escape sequences
|
|
described in the C standard are supported:
|
|
.Bd -ragged -offset indent -compact
|
|
.Bl -column <alert_character>
|
|
.It NUL \e0
|
|
.It <alert character> \ea
|
|
.It <backspace> \eb
|
|
.It <form-feed> \ef
|
|
.It <newline> \en
|
|
.It <carriage return> \er
|
|
.It <tab> \et
|
|
.It <vertical tab> \ev
|
|
.El
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Hexdump also supports the the following additional conversion strings:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Fl
|
|
.It Cm \&_a Ns Op Cm dox
|
|
Display the input offset, cumulative across input files, of the
|
|
next byte to be displayed.
|
|
The appended characters
|
|
.Cm d ,
|
|
.Cm o ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Cm x
|
|
specify the display base
|
|
as decimal, octal or hexadecimal respectively.
|
|
.It Cm \&_A Ns Op Cm dox
|
|
Identical to the
|
|
.Cm \&_a
|
|
conversion string except that it is only performed
|
|
once, when all of the input data has been processed.
|
|
.It Cm \&_c
|
|
Output characters in the default character set.
|
|
Nonprinting characters are displayed in three character, zero-padded
|
|
octal, except for those representable by standard escape notation
|
|
(see above),
|
|
which are displayed as two character strings.
|
|
.It Cm _p
|
|
Output characters in the default character set.
|
|
Nonprinting characters are displayed as a single
|
|
.Dq Cm \&. .
|
|
.It Cm _u
|
|
Output US ASCII characters, with the exception that control characters are
|
|
displayed using the following, lower-case, names.
|
|
Characters greater than 0xff, hexadecimal, are displayed as hexadecimal
|
|
strings.
|

|
|
The default and supported byte counts for the conversion characters
|
|
are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "Xc,_Xc,_Xc,_Xc,_Xc,_Xc" -offset indent
|
|
.It Li \&%_c , \&%_p , \&%_u , \&%c
|
|
One byte counts only.
|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Li \&%d , \&%i , \&%o ,
|
|
.Li \&%u , \&%X , \&%x
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Four byte default, one, two and four byte counts supported.
|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Li \&%E , \&%e , \&%f ,
|
|
.Li \&%G , \&%g
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Eight byte default, four byte counts supported.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The amount of data interpreted by each format string is the sum of the
|
|
data required by each format unit, which is the iteration count times the
|
|
byte count, or the iteration count times the number of bytes required by
|
|
the format if the byte count is not specified.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The input is manipulated in ``blocks'', where a block is defined as the
|
|
largest amount of data specified by any format string.
|
|
Format strings interpreting less than an input block's worth of data,
|
|
whose last format unit both interprets some number of bytes and does
|
|
not have a specified iteration count, have the iteration count
|
|
incremented until the entire input block has been processed or there
|
|
is not enough data remaining in the block to satisfy the format string.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If, either as a result of user specification or hexdump modifying
|
|
the iteration count as described above, an iteration count is
|
|
greater than one, no trailing whitespace characters are output
|
|
during the last iteration.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
It is an error to specify a byte count as well as multiple conversion
|
|
characters or strings unless all but one of the conversion characters
|
|
or strings is
|
|
.Cm \&_a
|
|
or
|
|
.Cm \&_A .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If, as a result of the specification of the
|
|
.Fl n
|
|
option or end-of-file being reached, input data only partially
|
|
satisfies a format string, the input block is zero-padded sufficiently
|
|
to display all available data (i.e. any format units overlapping the
|
|
end of data will display some number of the zero bytes).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Further output by such format strings is replaced by an equivalent
|
|
number of spaces.
|
|
An equivalent number of spaces is defined as the number of spaces
|
|
output by an
|
|
.Cm s
|
|
conversion character with the same field width
|
|
and precision as the original conversion character or conversion
|
|
string but with any
|
|
.Dq Li \&+ ,
|
|
.Dq \&\ \& ,
|
|
.Dq Li \&#
|
|
conversion flag characters
|
|
removed, and referencing a NULL string.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If no format strings are specified, the default display is equivalent
|
|
to specifying the
|
|
.Fl x
|
|
option.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm hexdump
|
|
exits 0 on success and >0 if an error occurred.
