Subject: how to do "hexdump" to analyze special white-space characters?

The application I am working on is quite sensitive to the whitespaces (e.g.
\n versus \r\n, etc.) it gets in the files I feed it.

To some degree, I can analyze different variants of these files with
"cat -vte".
But even better would be to see more in detail which hex code the characters
have as I can do under Linux with "hexdump -C".

How would I do that with cygwin?

Has anybody had success the 3 yr old Japanese util-cygwin-1.0.tar.gz as per
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2000-10/msg00778.html?

Any other hints? Other cygwin tools that achieve the same result?

Many thanks in advance!

	Ralf
