Options
The following options are used to specify which portions of the CCKD DASD file are to be displayed.
Options may not be combined; for example, -cd1 is not a valid option. Surround each option by blank(s).
Argument numbers may be specified either in decimal or hexadecimal. If the number begins with the
characters 0x the number is presumed to be hexadecimal; else the number is presumed to be decimal. No
numeric overflow checking is done, the user is assumed (!) to know what they're doing.
Options are divided into three categories: globaloptions, track-relatedoptions, and theoffsetoption.
