xxd

Create a hexdump from a binary file or vice-versa.

• Generate a hexdump from a binary file and display the output to console:

xxd {{input_file}}

• Send the hexdump output to a file:

xxd {{input_file}} {{output_file}}

• Format output in columns of 8 octets per line:

xxd -c {{8}} {{input_file}}

• Display in plain hex format without any gaps:

xxd -p {{input_file}}

• Revert a plaintext hex into binary and store it in an output file:

xxd -r -p {{input_file}} {{output_file}}
