   The options are as follows:
   .Bl -tag -width Fl
   .It Fl a
   .Em One-byte character display .
   Display the input offset in octal, followed by sixteen
   space-separated, three column, space-filled, characters of input data
   per line.  Control characters are printed as their names instead of as
   c style escapes.
   .It Fl B
   Same as
   .Fl o .
   .It Fl b
   .Em One-byte octal display .
   Display the input offset in octal, followed by sixteen
   space-separated, three column, zero-filled, bytes of input data, in
   octal, per line.  This is the default output style if no other is
   selected.
   .It Fl c
   .Em One-byte character display .
   Display the input offset in octal, followed by sixteen
   space-separated, three column, space-filled, characters of input data
   per line.  Control characters are printed at c style escapes, or as
   three octal digits, if no c escape exists for the character.
   .It Fl d
   .Em Two-byte decimal display .
   Display the input offset in octal, followed by eight
   space-separated, five column, zero-filled, two-byte units
   of input data, in unsigned decimal, per line.
   .It Fl e
   .Em Eight-byte floating point display .
   Display the input offset in octal, followed by two space-separated,
   twenty-one column, space filled, eight byte units of input data, in
   floating point, per line.
   .It Fl F
   Same as
   .Fl e .
   .It Fl f
   .Em Four-byte floating point display .
   Display the input offset in octal, followed by four space-separated,
   14 column, space filled, four byte units of input data, in floating
   point, per line.
   .It Fl H
   .Em Four-byte hex display .
   Display the input offset in octal, followed by four space-separated,
   eight column, zero filled, four byte units of input data, in hex,
   per line.
   .It Fl h
   .Em Two-byte hex display .
   Display the input offset in octal, followed by eight space-separated,
   four column, zero filled, two byte units of input data, in hex,
   per line.
   .It Fl I
   .Em Four-byte decimal display .
   Display the input offset in octal, followed by four space-separated,
   eleven column, space filled, four byte units of input data, in
   decimal, per line.
   .It Fl i
   .Em Two-byte decimal display .
   Display the input offset in octal, followed by eight space-separated,
   six column, space filled, two-byte units of input data, in decimal,
   per line.
   .It Fl j 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 L
   Same as
   .Fl I .
   .It Fl l
   Same as
   .Fl I .
   .It Fl N Ar length
   Interpret only
   .Ar length
   bytes of input.
   .It Fl O
   .Em Four-byte octal display .
   Display the input offset in octal, followed by four
   space-separated, eleven column, zero-filled, four-byte units
   of input data, in octal, per line.
   .It Fl o
   .Em Two-byte octal display .
   Display the input offset in octal, followed by eight
   space-separated, six column, zero-filled, two-byte units
   of input data, in octal, per line.
   .It Fl t Ar type_string
   Specify one or more output types.  The
   .Em type_string
   option-argument must be a string specifying the types to be used when
   writing the input data.  The string must consist of the type
   specification characters:
   .Pp
   .Cm a
   selects US-ASCII output, with control characters replaced with their
   names instead of as c escape sequences.  See also the
   .Cm _u
   conversion provided by hexdump(1).
   .Pp
   .Cm c
   selects a standard character based conversion.  See also the
   .Cm _c
   conversion provided by hexdump(1).
   .Pp
   .Cm f
   selects the floating point output format.  This type character can be
   optionally followed by the characters
   .Cm 4
   or
   .Cm F
   to specify four byte floating point output, or
   .Cm 8
   or
   .Cm L
   to specify eight byte floating point output.  The default output
   format is eight byte floats.  See also the
   .Cm e
   conversion provided by hexdump(1).
   .Pp
   .Cm d ,
   .Cm o ,
   .Cm u ,
   or
   .Cm x
   select decimal, octal, unsigned decimal, or hex output respectively.
   These types can optionally be followed by
   .Cm C
   to specify
   .Em char Ns -sized
   output,
   .Cm S
   to specify
   .Em short Ns -sized
   output,
   .Cm I
   to specify
   .Em int Ns -sized
   output,
   .Cm L
   to specify
   .Em long Ns -sized
   output,
   .Cm 1
   to specify one-byte output,
   .Cm 2
   to specify two-byte output,
   .Cm 4
   to specify four-byte output, or
   .Cm 8
   to specify eight-byte output.  The default output format is in
   four-byte quantities.  See also the
   .Cm d ,
   .Cm o ,
   .Cm u ,
   and
   .Cm x
   conversions provided by hexdump(1).
   .\"(a|c|f[FLD]?|[doux][C1S2I4L8]?)*
   .It Fl v
   The
   .Fl v
   option causes
   .Nm
   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
   Same as
   .Fl H .
   .It Fl x
   Same as
   .Fl h .
   .El
   .Pp
   For each input file,
   .Nm
   sequentially copies the input to standard output, transforming the
   data according to the options given.  If no options are specified, the
   default display is equivalent to specifying the
   .Fl o
   option.
   .Pp
   .Nm
   exits 0 on success and >0 if an error occurred.

   after he augmented the deprecated od syntax to include things he felt
   had been missing for a long time.
