I don't seem to have that command. What
Following up on commit cab0b6653827, the hexdump test suite is weird. For
example, the first test has "simple\\n" when it means "simple\n" (which
nevertheless somehow works for reasons I am loathe to examine at the moment, and
I have a todo item to convert the various test arguments needing
