xxd: Generate a hexdump from a binary file and save it as a text file.
$ xxd ${input_file} ${output_file}
try on your machine
The command "xxd" is a Linux utility used to create a hex dump of a given file or to convert a hex dump back to its original binary format. In this specific command, "${input_file}" is a placeholder that represents the name or path of the input file you want to create a hex dump of, and "${output_file}" is a placeholder that represents the name or path of the file where you want to save the hex dump. So, when you run the command "xxd ${input_file} ${output_file}", the "xxd" utility will read the contents of the input file, convert it into a hex dump format, and then save it into the output file.
