OPTIONS

hx
Futuristic take on hexdump, made in Rust.

USAGE:
    hx [OPTIONS] [INPUTFILE]
    <stdin> hx [OPTIONS]

FLAGS:
    -h, --help       Prints help information
    -V, --version    Prints version information

OPTIONS:
    -a, --array <array_format>    Set source code format output: rust (r), C (c), golang (g), python (p), kotlin (k),
                                  java (j), swift (s), fsharp (f) [possible values: r, c, g, p, k, j, s, f]
    -t, --color <color>           Set color tint terminal output. 0 to disable, 1 to enable [possible values: 0, 1]
    -c, --cols <columns>          Set column length
    -f, --format <format>         Set format of octet: Octal (o), LowerHex (x), UpperHex (X), Binary (b) [possible
                                  values: o, x, X, b]
    -u, --func <func_length>      Set function wave length
    -l, --len <len>               Set <len> bytes to read
    -p, --places <func_places>    Set function wave output decimal places

ARGS:
    <INPUTFILE>    Pass file path as an argument, or input data may be passed via stdin
