00000010 71 72 73 74 |qrst|
00000014
(note the extra 2 spaces before the ascii output)
And a 26-byte file looks like this:
00000000 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 6a 6b 6c 6d 6e 6f 70 |abcdefghijklmnop|
00000010 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 79 78 7a |qrstuvwyxz|
0000001a
(note the extra space before the ascii output)
The problem is that bpad() in dump.c shortens the length of the format string (from "%02x " to "%2s "), but does not update the nospace pointer, so the last byte in the 8-byte set is printed as 3 spaces instead of 2 spaces.
A simple fix is to decrease the nospace pointer by the number of characters removed. A patch that does this is attached.
