xxd creates a hex dump of a given file or standard input.
It can also convert a hex dump back to its original binary
form. Like uuencode(1) and uudecode(1) it allows the
transmission of binary data in a `mail-safe' ASCII repre-
sentation, but has the advantage of decoding to standard
output. Moreover, it can be used to perform binary file
patching.
