DUMP Formatted File Data Dump in Hexadecimal and ASCII DUMP path This command produces a formatted display of the physical data contents of the path specified which may be a mass storage file or any other I/O device. If a pathlist is omitted, the standard input path is used. The output is written to standard output. This command is commonly used to examine the contents of non-text files. The data is displayed 16 bytes per line in both hexadecimal and ASCII character format. Data bytes that have non-displayable values are represented by periods in the character area. The addresses displayed on the dump are relative to the beginning of the file. Because memory modules are position-independent and stored on files exactly as they exist in memory, the addresses shown on the dump correspond to the relative load addresses of memory-module files.
