A binary data display and conversion utility, hexdump supports both bin2hex and hex2bin functionality. 'bin2hex' is pretty self-explainatory.
For 'hex2bin' (-r), hexdump searches the input stream for "nibbles" converting each pair to a binary output byte. To facilitate small changes to binary files, input hex format is compatible with hexdump displayed hex and characters following a '*' on a line are ignored (for comments).
Syntax:
HexDump -switches [InfileName] (output always written to stdout)
Switches:
-R      Reverse (hex2bin)
-Sxxx   Start offset (hex)
-Nxxx   Number of bytes to process (hex)
-H, -? Help
