                     16: one or more formats
                     17: as
                     18: selected by the first argument.
                     19: If the first argument is missing
                     20: .bd \*-o
                     21: is default.

                     24: .s3
                     25: .lp +3 3
                     26: \fBa\fR        interprets words as PDP-11 instructions and
                     27: dis-assembles the operation code.
                     28: Unknown operation codes print as ???.
                     29: .s3
                     30: .lp +3 3
                     31: \fBb\fR        interprets bytes in octal.
                     32: .s3
                     33: .lp +3 3
                     34: \fBc\fR        interprets bytes in ascii.
                     35: Unknown ascii characters are printed as \\?.
                     36: .s3
                     37: .lp +3 3
                     38: \fBd\fR        interprets words in decimal.
                     39: .s3
                     40: .lp +3 3
                     41: \fBh\fR        interprets words in hex.
                     42: .s3
                     43: .lp +3 3
                     44: \fBo\fR        interprets words in octal.
                     45: .s3

                     47: .i0
                     48: The \fIfile\fR argument specifies which file is to be dumped.
                     49: If no file argument is specified,
                     50: the standard input is used.
                     51: Thus
                     52: .it od
                     53: can be used as a filter.
                     54: .s3
                     55: The offset argument specifies the offset
                     56: in the file where dumping is to commence.
                     57: This argument is normally interpreted
                     58: as octal bytes.
                     59: If `\fB.\fR' is appended, the offset is interpreted in
                     60: decimal.
                     61: If `\fBb\fR' is appended, the offset is interpreted in blocks.
                     62: (A block is 512 bytes.)
                     63: If the file argument is omitted,
                     64: the offset argument must be preceded by `\fB+\fR'.
                     65: .s3
                     66: Dumping continues until end-of-file.
