Subject:	OD outputs the hex from right to left?...hex dump utility...

hi Tim,

I just realized that the od dump utility is dumping the hex values
from right to left and then dumping the ascii values from left to right.

This makes it very hard to read.  Is there a flag or option to make the
output of ascii and hex columns to be in the same order?

here's a sample output.

      000000 00000009 34333231 bf003635 00000078
              ht nul nul nul   1   2   3   4   5   6 nul   ?   x nul nul nul
      000010 454c4f53 4f525443 5343494e 0000ea00
               S   O   L   E   C   T   R   O   N   I   C   S nul   j nul nul


I like the output to appear like so:

      000010 534f4c45 4354524f 4e494353 00ea0000
               S   O   L   E   C   T   R   O   N   I   C   S nul   j nul nul

or even better like this:(all on one line, only letters and number seen on
ascii view and a '.' for everything else)
(also all on one line is much more readable)

      000010       000010 534f4c45 4354524f 4e494353 00ea0000

Any help or suggestions on this would be very welcomed.
