xxd is distributed with Vim. I've never thought of xxd as being anything but a "Vim thing". That it had its own history (1990-1998) before being pulled into Vim is a TIL for me. Here you go: https://github.com/vim/vim/tree/master/src/xxd There might still be other versions of this out there, but I suspect most OS distros pick up xxd by way of packaging Vim. So if you work on some other xxd, you're probably in a dead fork. The man page is also from Vim: https://github.com/vim/vim/blob/master/runtime/doc/xxd.1 My first patch to xxd, if I were to work on it, would be to fix the man page to indicate clearly that it's the xxd bundled with Vim. |
