NAME

       pspp-dump-sav - dissect SPSS system file

SYNOPSIS

       pspp-dump-sav [-d | --data[=maxcases]] file...
       pspp-dump-sav --help | -h
       pspp-dump-sav --version | -v

DESCRIPTION

       The  pspp-dump-sav  program reads each SPSS system file file and prints its contents.  The
       output format is useful for debugging system file readers and writers and for  discovering
       how  to  interpret  unknown  or  poorly understood records.  End users may find the output
       useful for providing the PSPP developers information about system files that PSPP does not
       accurately read.

OPTIONS

       -d[maxcases]
       --data[=maxcases]
              By default, pspp-dump-sav does not print any of the data in a system file, only the
              file headers.  Specify this option to print the  data  as  well.   If  maxcases  is
              specified, then it limits the number of cases printed.

       -h
       --help Prints a usage message on stdout and exits.

       -v
       --version
              Prints version information on stdout and exits.

BUGS

       Some  errors that prevent files from being interpreted successfully cause pspp-dump-sav to
       exit without reading any additional files given on the command line.
