First time I saw this was in 1968 in some 'n'-inches thick stack
of fan-fold paper. It saved thousands of trees, millions of $$$ on
paper, ribbons and computer time from the IBM 1401 1960's to
the day a SYSUDUMP became too big to print and carry o one's
desk. Today it's mostly in the way and I second the motion, it could,
it SHOULD be an option (minimum number of *equal* bytes).

Why not?, I wonder. Obviously not much thought went into
the design of that program

One of my pet peeves is when IPCS (for example) does this:
0000 40404040 40404040 40404040 00000000 | |
0010 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 |................|
0020 Next X'0010' bytes same as above
0030 00000000 40404040 40404040 40404040 |.... |
Why not just display the [expletive elided] data?
