dumpcs shows a list of printable
characters for the user’s current locale, along with their hexadecimal code
values. The display device is assumed to be capable of displaying characters
for a given locale. With no option, dumpcs displays the entire list of printable
characters for the current locale.
With one or more numeric options specified,
it shows EUC
codeset(s) for the current locale according to the numbers
specified, and in order of codeset number. Each non-printable character is
represented by an asterisk ‘*’ and enough ASCII
space character(s) to fill
that codeset’s column width.
- -0
- Show ASCII
(or EUC
primary) codeset.
- -1
- Show EUC
codeset 1, if used for the current locale.
- -2
- Show EUC
codeset
2, if used for the current locale.
- -3
- Show EUC
codeset 3, if used for the
current locale.
- -v
- ‘Verbose’. Normally, ranges of non-printable characters are
collapsed into a single line. This option produces one line for each non-printable
character.
- -w
- Replace code values with corresponding wide character values
(process codes).
The environment variables LC_CTYPE
and LANG
control the character classification throughout dumpcs. On entry to dumpcs,
these environment variables are checked in that order. This implies that
a new setting for LANG
does not override the setting of LC_CTYPE
. When none
of the values is valid, the character classification defaults to the POSIX.1
‘C’ locale.
