Hi Ralph,
could you please download and execute the updated test script I have
provided to verify that your version is running correctly?
I just tested again on an Ubuntu 11.04 that has bsdmainutils 8.2.2
(which fails, but is OK since not an LTS release):
$ testHexdump.sh ABCD
Ubuntu 10.10, bsdmainutils 8.0.11ubuntu1, seems to be working fine.
$ echo ABCD | hexdump -s 1
001 4342 0a44
005
That's CB \nD; the A has been skipped.
