NAME
       od - dump files in octal and other formats

SYNOPSIS
       od [OPTION]... [FILE]...
       od [-abcdfilosx]... [FILE] [[+]OFFSET[.][b]]
       od --traditional [OPTION]... [FILE] [[+]OFFSET[.][b] [+][LABEL][.][b]]

DESCRIPTION
       Write an unambiguous representation, octal bytes by default, of FILE to
       standard output.	 With more than one FILE argument, concatenate them in
       the listed order to form the input.

       With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.

       If  first  and  second  call  formats  both apply, the second format is
       assumed if the last operand begins with + or (if there are 2  operands)
       a   digit.    An	  OFFSET  operand  means  -j  OFFSET.	LABEL  is  the
       pseudo-address at first byte printed, incremented  when	dump  is  pro‐
       gressing.   For OFFSET and LABEL, a 0x or 0X prefix indicates hexadeci‐
       mal; suffixes may be . for octal and b for multiply by 512.

       Mandatory arguments to long options are	mandatory  for	short  options
       too.

       -A, --address-radix=RADIX
	      output format for file offsets; RADIX is one of [doxn], for Dec‐
	      imal, Octal, Hex or None

       --endian={big|little}
	      swap input bytes according the specified order

       -j, --skip-bytes=BYTES
	      skip BYTES input bytes first

       -N, --read-bytes=BYTES
	      limit dump to BYTES input bytes

       -S BYTES, --strings[=BYTES]
	      output strings of at least BYTES graphic	chars;	3  is  implied
	      when BYTES is not specified

       -t, --format=TYPE
	      select output format or formats

       -v, --output-duplicates
	      do not use * to mark line suppression

       -w[BYTES], --width[=BYTES]
	      output  BYTES bytes per output line; 32 is implied when BYTES is
	      not specified

       --traditional
	      accept arguments in third form above

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
	      output version information and exit

   Traditional format specifications may be intermixed; they accumulate:
       -a     same as -t a,  select named characters, ignoring high-order bit

       -b     same as -t o1, select octal bytes

       -c     same as -t c,  select printable characters or backslash escapes

       -d     same as -t u2, select unsigned decimal 2-byte units

       -f     same as -t fF, select floats

       -i     same as -t dI, select decimal ints

       -l     same as -t dL, select decimal longs

       -o     same as -t o2, select octal 2-byte units

       -s     same as -t d2, select decimal 2-byte units

       -x     same as -t x2, select hexadecimal 2-byte units

   TYPE is made up of one or more of these specifications:
       a      named character, ignoring high-order bit

       c      printable character or backslash escape

       d[SIZE]
	      signed decimal, SIZE bytes per integer

       f[SIZE]
	      floating point, SIZE bytes per float

       o[SIZE]
	      octal, SIZE bytes per integer

       u[SIZE]
	      unsigned decimal, SIZE bytes per integer

       x[SIZE]
	      hexadecimal, SIZE bytes per integer

       SIZE is a number.   For	TYPE  in  [doux],  SIZE	 may  also  be	C  for
       sizeof(char),   S  for  sizeof(short),  I  for  sizeof(int)  or	L  for
       sizeof(long).  If TYPE is f, SIZE may also be F	for  sizeof(float),  D
       for sizeof(double) or L for sizeof(long double).

       Adding  a z suffix to any type displays printable characters at the end
       of each output line.

   BYTES is hex with 0x or 0X prefix, and may have a multiplier suffix:
       b      512

       KB     1000

       K      1024

       MB     1000*1000

       M      1024*1024

       and so on for G, T, P, E, Z, Y.

EXAMPLES
       od -A x -t x1z -v
	      Display hexdump format output

       od -A o -t oS -w16
	      The default output format used by od
