Hexdump A Compiled File

The hexdump unix utility allows you to dump the contents of a compiled/executable file in a readable hexadecimal format. Adding the -C flag includes a sidebar with a formatted version of that row of hexadecimal.

For example, a compiled Hello World java program, Hello.java, will look something like this:

> cat Hello.class | hexdump -C
