For security reasons we need to be able to view all of the contents on a  
NeXT formatted floppy disk.

Essentially we want to go sector by sector and be able to view the data in  
hex and/or ascii form.  This is similar to what you might see in Norton or  
PCTools packages for a PC.

Does such an App exist?  Is there a fairly easy way to do this from the  
command line?
