Usage:
  $name -[options...] [files...]
  $name -[options...] -s "string"
  $name -h
  -h prints this message.
Inherited from hexdump;
  -C Canonical unidump mode
  -v prints the duplicate line as is.  Without this option,
     single "*" will be printed instead.
For unidump only
  -p prints in perl literals that you can copy and paste directly
     to your perl script.
  -P prints in perl executable format!
  -u prints a bunch of "Uxxxx,".  Handy when you want to pass your
     characters in mailing lists. 
IO Options:
  -e io_encoding    same as "-f io_encoding -t io_encoding"
  -f from_encoding  convert the source stream from this encoding
  -t to_encoding    print to STDOUT in this encoding
  -s string         "string" will be converted instead of STDIN.
  -H nline          prints separater for each nlines of output.
                    0 means only the table headding be printed.
