	 FLD:    Fixed Length Record Dump Utility
 
 FLD is a futility to dump files - it shows file contents in
 ASCII, RAD50, floating, octal, decimal and octal-byte formats. 
 It inputs a fixed-length record file (F.FIX attribute) and
 outputs a text file (or to TI:). 

 Starting at the specified byte, each displayed value represents
 the NEXT ONE OR TWO WORDS commencing from that byte.
 Each part of each record is displayed as ASCII, RAD50 etc. One
 line corresponds to one word of a record. Sorry, the whole file is
 dumped. To use FLD you must know the input record length: use
 DMP/HD to find this out if you don't know it!
 
 FLD command line:  MCR>FLD outspec=infile/reclen

1	COMMANDS



 FLD obeys RSX command file conventions so you can say:

 	MCR>FLD outputfile=inputfile/recordlength
 or
 	MCR>FLD @commandfile
 or
 	MCR>FLD
 	FLD>outpufile=inputfile/recordlength
 	FLD>^Z
 
 
 The recordlength is a decimal number (no '.' allowed).
 /recordlength is compulsory.
