-The ascii utility provides easy conversion between various byte
-representations and the American Standard Code for Information
-Interchange (ASCII) character table.  It knows about a wide variety of
-hex, binary, octal, Teletype mnemonic, ISO/ECMA code point, slang
-names, XML entity names, and other representations.  Given any one on
-the command line, it will try to display all others.  Called with no
-arguments it displays a handy small ASCII chart.
