> The -non-verbose option still outputs a hexdump, whereas -raw can be used to extract the raw binary contents of a section so it can be piped to other tools. Do you think there is a better tool or option to use for this kind of functionality?

What tool did you previously use on Mac OS X to do this?  It seems this is “new” functionality.  I worry about the headers being printed with fat files, archives etc to make this functionality really useful in the full context of llvm-objdump’s existing functionality.

I’m not sure what the best tool for the job your doing.  Maybe readobj would be better?  But I honestly don’t know.  The goal I have been working towards is to get the Mac OS X functionality of otool(1) into llvm-objdump under its -macho option.  And that output is to be human readable.

Not sure what tool one would use to dump raw binary from parts of a Mach-O file.  Can you describe your use case?
