Hi,
I've got a problem with od command; could anyone check, please?
 
After editing and saving a file ...
[de139642@oc0027726724 ~]$ cat temp.txt
a1
b2
c3

... I wanted to browse it in hex mode by use of 'od' command, however I failed
to obtain a correct image:
 
[de139642@oc0027726724 ~]$ od -t x temp.txt
0000000 620a3161 33630a32 00000a0a
0000012
[de139642@oc0027726724 ~]$ od -t x2 temp.txt
0000000 3161 620a 0a32 3363 0a0a
0000012
[de139642@oc0027726724 ~]$ od -x temp.txt
0000000 3161 620a 0a32 3363 0a0a
0000012
[de139642@oc0027726724 ~]$

using vi (hex mode) instead, I got what I expected ....
1: 6131 0a62 320a 6333 0a0a                 a1.b2.c3..

Is there an error with od command or do I understand it badly?

Thanks

Dieter
