Hello ALUG list,
Does anyone know to use the hexdump program?
I've been trying all night (and am at serious risk of fatal caffeine poisoning!)
All I want it to do is print every byte of a file in hex notation without any other rubbish (no indexes, no ASCII, no spaces, no line feeds, no nothing).
It claims that you can pass it a format string in the same format as fprintf() so I tried this: $ hexdump -e "%x" {filename} >{outputfile}
but it just said that my format string was a "bad format {%x}".
Any help would be very much appreciated!
Why not just look at it in one of the hex editors?
