Hello, I wanted to report what I think is a bug in the octal dump program. I am using Red Hat Linux 7.1 and tried to use od to check for special characters but the the -x gave me wrong results. Here is what I input and the results: echo abcdef|od -cx a b c d e f \n 0a 6261 6463 6665 000a It looks like the -c is working correctly but the -x output is reversed.
