     SYNOPSIS

	  Origin:   System III and HP

     DESCRIPTION
	  Od (xd) dumps file in one or more formats as selected by the
	  first	 argument.   If the first argument is missing, -o (-x)
	  is the default.  Each	 line  is  prepended  with  an	offset
	  field.  For od, the offset is in octal, for xd the offset is
	  in hexadecimal.  The meanings of the format options are:

	  -b	Interpret bytes in octal (hexadecimal).

	  -c	Interpret  bytes  in   ASCII.	 Certain   non-graphic
		characters appear as C escapes: null=\0, backspace=\b,
		form-feed=\f, new-line=\n, return=\r,  tab=\t;	others
		appear as 3-digit octal numbers.

	  -d	Interpret 16-bit words in decimal.

	  -o	Interpret 16-bit words in octal.

	  -x	Interpret 16-bit words in hexadecimal.

	  The file argument specifies which file is to be dumped.   If
	  no file argument is specified, the standard input is used.

	  The offset argument specifies the offset in the  file	 where
	  dumping   is	 to   commence.	  This	argument  is  normally
	  interpreted as octal bytes.  If .  is	 appended,  offset  is
	  interpreted  in  decimal.   If  0x  is  prepended, offset is
	  interpreted in hexadecimal.  If b  is	 appended,  offset  is
	  interpreted in blocks of 512 bytes.  If the file argument is
	  omitted, offset must be preceded by +.

	  Dumping continues until end-of-file.
