* BSD and GNU versions support -a for printing literal characters, with control character names printed * GNU version deliberately masks highest (8th) bit per byte, so we follow this * This is consistent with standards document[1] wording: "named characters from the International Reference Version (IRV) of the ISO/IEC 646:1991 standard. Only the least significant seven bits of each byte shall be used" * Standards document doesn't mention -a flag, but generally -a is taken to mean the same as "-t a" * Attempt to document the available options 1. http://ktiml.mff.cuni.cz/~kucerap/unix/susv4tc2/utilities/od.html
