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.
