Od (Unix)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- The correct title of this article is od. The initial letter is shown capitalized due to technical restrictions.
od is an octal dumping program for Unix and Unix-like systems. It can also dump hexadecimal or decimal data.
[edit] Example session
Normally a dump of executable data is very long. The head program prints out the first few lines of the output. Here is an example of a dump of the Hello World program, piped through head.
