Usage

/usr/lib/mh/fmtdump [-help] [-version] [-form formatfile] [-format string]

Overview

fmtdump parses an nmh format file and produces a pseudo-language listing of how nmh interprets the file. This is useful when debugging a complicated format file.

The -format string and -form formatfile switches may be used to specify a format string or format file to read. See mh-format(5) for details.
