Usage: QDUMP [ ;INFO="filename [options]" ] QDUMP can be run entirely via the INFO string (which is given a filename plus any options), or as an interactive program. Both modes of dumping a file have the same options: Options: (only the uppercase portion is needed) ASCII Dump data only in (printable) ASCII. BLANKZeros Display 16-bit halfwords that are all zero as four blanks instead of 0000. BOTH Dump data in both hex and (printable) ASCII. noBYTES Offsets should be displayed as bytes, not halfwords. noCOPY Open the file in COPY (or nocopy) mode. EJECT Emit a page-eject (ASCII 12) at end of program. HALFSperline # Specifies number of 16-bit words to dump per line. HEXonly Dump data in hex. noLOOKahead noNB (synonym: noNZ) NB (and NZ) mean: skip records that have nothing other than nulls or blanks. noOFFSETs QUICK Implies ASCII, NB, NOOFFSET, QUIET, RECNUMS noQuiet noRECNums RECORDS # (or RECS #) Stop after the specified number of records (not counting userlabels) SAVEFLAGS Save any flag settings (these options) for use in subsequent DUMP commands during this run. noULS (or: noUSERLabels) noULonly (or: noULSonly) ULONLY tells DUMP that you only want to see the userlabels, not the body of the file. NOULONLY tells DUMP that in addition to seeing userlabels (i.e., it implies ULS), you also want to see the body of the file. noVerbose VIRtual (or: VA) (only in NMPRG version) Use memory mapped access to "read" the file ... not the file system. This is most useful when handling bytestream files. (For bytestream files, the record size is assumed to be 256 bytes.) WIDTH # Specifies the $stdlist output width to use. (Otherwise, it defaults to COLUMNS variable, or 80 if not found.) --- Commands: When run with no INFO string, QDUMP drops into command mode. The following commands are available: DUMP filename [options] (The options are discussed above) Exit (or: //) Help [prefix] (or: ?) --- QUIKDUMP If the QDUMP program file is copied or renamed to be "QUIKDUMP" (in any group or account), then the following defaults are implied: ASCII NB noOFFSETS QUICK QUIET RECNUMS ...which is a nice setup for dumping data in ASCII (non-printables will be displayed as dots). // QDump 20140828
