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.
