- Print the hexadecimal representation of a file, replacing duplicate lines by '*':
`hexdump {{path/to/file}}`
- Display the input offset in hexadecimal and its ASCII representation in two columns:
`hexdump {{[-C|--canonical]}} {{path/to/file}}`
- Display the hexadecimal representation of a file, but interpret only n bytes of the input:
`hexdump {{[-C|--canonical]}} {{[-n|--length]}} {{number_of_bytes}} {{path/to/file}}`
- Don't replace duplicate lines with '*':
`hexdump {{[-v|--no-squeezing]}} {{path/to/file}}`
