raw

The raw command line tool is a useful utility in computer systems that allows users to access and interact with hardware devices directly. It provides a way to bypass the operating system and communicate with devices at a low level. This tool is commonly used by system administrators and experienced users for troubleshooting and diagnostics. The raw command line tool often requires elevated privileges to access and manipulate hardware. It allows users to read and write raw data to various devices such as hard drives, network interfaces, and USB ports. The tool can be used to extract and manipulate binary information, perform low-level disk operations, and analyze network traffic. It is powerful, but also carries risks, as incorrect usage can lead to data corruption, system crashes, or loss of functionality.
