od is a perfectly acceptable answer. We all need octal dump ;-)

Hmmm, sneaky. But really, the point was I am genuinely interested in what
people use the most, or to the best effect, not what they think the most
vital piece of the OS is. To this end, while 'ls' is a valid answer, it's
frankly a not very interesting one. 'od' on the other hand takes me by
suprise, but if octal dump you will then octal dump you must, - I guess..
