newline character.

<dt><b>lcase</b><dd>Map upper-case characters specified by the LC_CTYPE keyword
<b>tolower</b>
to the corresponding lower-case character.
Characters
for which no mapping is specified will not be modified by this
conversion.

The
<b>lcase</b>
and
<b>ucase</b>
symbols are mutually exclusive.

<dt><b>ucase</b><dd>Map lower-case characters specified by the LC_CTYPE keyword
<b>toupper</b>
to the corresponding upper-case character.
Characters
for which no mapping is specified will not be modified by this
conversion.

<dt><b>swab</b><dd>Swap every pair of input bytes.
If the current input record is an odd number of bytes,
the last byte in the input record is ignored.

<dt><b>noerror</b><dd>
Do not stop processing on an input error.
When an input error occurs, a diagnostic
message will be written on standard error, followed by the current
input and output block counts in the same format as used at
completion (see the STDERR section).
If the
<b>sync</b>
conversion is
specified, the missing input will be replaced with null bytes and
processed normally; otherwise, the input block will be omitted from
the output.

<dt><b>notrunc</b><dd>
Do not truncate the output file.
Preserve blocks in the
output file not explicitly written by this invocation
of the
<i>dd</i>
utility.
(See also the preceding
<b>of=</b>file
operand.)

<dt><b>sync</b><dd>Pad every input block to the size of the
<b>ibs=</b>
buffer, appending null bytes.
(If either
<b>block</b>
or
<b>unblock</b>
is also specified, append
space
characters, rather than null bytes.)

</dl>
<p>
</dl>
<p>
The behaviour is unspecified if operands other than
<b>conv=</b>
are specified more than once.
<p>
For the
<b>bs=</b>,
<b>cbs=</b>,
<b>ibs=</b>
and
<b>obs=</b>
operands, the application must supply an
expression specifying a size in bytes.
The expression,
<i>expr</i>,
can be:
<ol>
<p>
<li>
a positive decimal number
<p>
<li>
a positive decimal number followed by
k,
specifying multiplication by 1024
<p>
<li>
a positive decimal number followed by
b,
specifying multiplication by 512
<p>
<li>
two or more positive decimal numbers (with or without
k
or
b)
separated by
x,
specifying the product of the indicated values.
<p>
</ol>
<p>
All of the operands will be processed before any input is read.
<p>
The following two tables display the octal number character
values used for the
<b>ascii</b>
and
<b>ebcdic</b>
conversions (first table)
and for the
<b>ibm</b>
conversion (second table).
In both tables, the ASCII values are the row and column
headers and the EBCDIC values are found at their intersections.
For example, ASCII 0012 (LF) is the second row, third column,
yielding 0045 in EBCDIC.
The inverted tables (for EBCDIC to ASCII conversion)
are not shown, but are in one-to-one correspondence
with these tables.
The differences between the two tables are
highlighted by small boxes drawn around five entries.

</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_014_363">&nbsp;</a>STDIN</h4><blockquote>
If no
<b>if=</b>
operand is specified,
the standard input will be used.
See the INPUT FILES section.
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_014_364">&nbsp;</a>INPUT FILES</h4><blockquote>
The input file can be any file type.
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_014_365">&nbsp;</a>ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES</h4><blockquote>
The following environment variables affect the execution of
<i>dd</i>:
<dl compact>

<dt><i>LANG</i><dd>Provide a default value for the internationalisation variables
that are unset or null.
If
<i>LANG</i>
is unset or null, the corresponding value from the
implementation-dependent default locale will be used.
If any of the internationalisation variables contains an invalid setting, the
utility will behave as if none of the variables had been defined.

<dt><i>LC_ALL</i><dd>
If set to a non-empty string value,
override the values of all the other internationalisation variables.

<dt><i>LC_CTYPE</i><dd>
Determine the
locale for the interpretation of sequences of bytes of text data as
characters (for example, single- as opposed to multi-byte characters
in arguments and input files),
the classification of
characters as upper- or lower-case, and the mapping
of characters from one case to the other.

<dt><i>LC_MESSAGES</i><dd>
Determine the locale that should be used to affect
the format and contents of diagnostic
messages written to standard error
and informative messages written to standard output.

<dt><i>NLSPATH</i><dd>
Determine the location of message catalogues
for the processing of
<i>LC_MESSAGES .

</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_014_366">&nbsp;</a>ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS</h4><blockquote>
For SIGINT, the
<i>dd</i>
utility will write status information to standard error before exiting.
It will take the standard action for all other signals;
see the ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS section in
<a href="utildes.html">Utility Description Defaults</a>
<xref href=utildes></xref>.
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_014_367">&nbsp;</a>STDOUT</h4><blockquote>
If no
<b>of=</b>
operand is specified, the standard output will be used.
The nature of the output depends on the operands selected.
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_014_368">&nbsp;</a>STDERR</h4><blockquote>
On completion,
<i>dd</i>
will write the number of input and output blocks to standard error.
In the POSIX locale the following formats will be used:
<p><code>
<pre>
<tt>"%u+%u records in\n"</tt>, &lt;<i>number of whole input blocks</i>&gt;,
&lt;<i>number of partial input blocks</i>&gt;

<tt>"%u+%u records out\n"</tt>, &lt;<i>number of whole output blocks</i>&gt;,
&lt;<i>number of partial output blocks</i>&gt;
<br>
</pre>
</code>
<p>
A partial input block is one for which
<i><a href="../xsh/read.html">read()</a></i>
returned less than the input block size.
A partial output block is one that was
written with fewer bytes than specified by the output block size.
<p>
In addition, when there is at least one truncated block, the
number of truncated blocks will be written to standard error.
In the POSIX locale, the format is:
<code>
<p>
<tt>"%u truncated %s\n"</tt>, &lt;<i>number of truncated blocks</i>&gt;,
"record"
(if
&lt;<i>number of truncated blocks</i>&gt;
is one)
"records"
(otherwise)
<br>
</code>
<p>
Diagnostic messages may also be written to standard error.
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_014_369">&nbsp;</a>OUTPUT FILES</h4><blockquote>
If the
<b>of=</b>
operand is used, the output will be the same as described in
the STDOUT section.
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_014_370">&nbsp;</a>EXTENDED DESCRIPTION</h4><blockquote>
None.
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_014_371">&nbsp;</a>EXIT STATUS</h4><blockquote>
The following exit values are returned:
<dl compact>

<dt>0<dd>The input file was copied successfully.

<dt>&gt;0<dd>An error occurred.

</dl>
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_014_372">&nbsp;</a>CONSEQUENCES OF ERRORS</h4><blockquote>
If an input error is detected and the
<b>noerror</b>
conversion has not
been specified, any partial output block will be written to the
output file, a diagnostic message will be written, and the copy
operation will be discontinued.
If some other error is
detected, a diagnostic message will be written and the copy
operation will be discontinued.
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_014_373">&nbsp;</a>APPLICATION USAGE</h4><blockquote>
The input and output block size can be specified
to take advantage of raw physical I/O.
<p>
There are many different versions of the EBCDIC codesets.
The ASCII and EBCDIC conversions specified for the
<i>dd</i>
utility perform conversions for the version specified by the tables.
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_014_374">&nbsp;</a>EXAMPLES</h4><blockquote>
The following command:
<pre>
<code>
dd if=/dev/rmt0h  of=/dev/rmt1h
</code>
</pre>
copies from tape drive 0 to tape drive 1,
using a common historical device naming convention.
<p>
The following command:
<pre>
<code>
dd ibs=10  skip=1
</code>
</pre>
strips the first 10 bytes from standard input.
<p>
This example reads an EBCDIC
tape blocked ten 80-byte EBCDIC
card images per block into the ASCII file
<b>x</b> :
<pre>
<code>
dd if=/dev/tape of=x ibs=800 cbs=80 conv=ascii,lcase
</code>
</pre>
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_014_375">&nbsp;</a>FUTURE DIRECTIONS</h4><blockquote>
The IEEE PASC 1003.2 Interpretations Committee has forwarded concerns about 
parts of this interface definition to the IEEE PASC Shell and Utilities Working Group
which is identifying the corrections.
A future revision of this specification will align with
IEEE Std. 1003.2b when finalised.
