HexDump

public class HexDump
extends java.lang.Object

This program prints a bitstream representing each block of 8 bits in hexadecimal notation. The program is similar to the Unix utilities od (octal dump) and hexdump (hexadecimal dump):

  % od -t x1 < abra.txt 
  0000000 41 42 52 41 43 41 44 41 42 52 41 21
  0000014
