 <refsect1><title>DESCRIPTION</title>
  <para>
   <command>yaz-marcdump</command> reads MARC records from one or
   more files.
   It parses each record and supports output in line-format,
   ISO2709,
   <ulink url="&url.marcxml;">MARCXML</ulink>,
   <ulink url="&url.marc_in_json;">MARC-in-JSON</ulink>,
   <ulink url="&url.marcxchange;">MarcXchange</ulink>
   as well as Hex output.
  </para>
  <para>
   This utility parses records ISO2709(raw MARC), line format, MARC-in-JSON
   format as well as XML if that is structured as MARCXML/MarcXchange.
  </para>
  <para>
   MARC-in-JSON encoding/decoding is supported in YAZ 5.0.5 and later.
  </para>
  <note>
   <para>
    As of YAZ 2.1.18, OAI-MARC is no longer supported.
    OAI-MARC is deprecated. Use MARCXML instead.
   </para>
  </note>
  <para>
   By default, each record is written to standard output in a line
   format with newline for each field, $x for each subfield x.
   The output format may be changed with option <literal>-o</literal>,
  </para>
  <para>
   <command>yaz-marcdump</command> can also be requested to perform
   character set conversion of each record.
  </para>

   <varlistentry>
    <term>-f <replaceable>from</replaceable></term>
    <listitem><para>
      Specify the character set <replaceable>from</replaceable>
      of the input MARC record.
      Should be used in conjunction with option <literal>-t</literal>.
      Refer to the yaz-iconv man page for supported character sets.
     </para></listitem>
   </varlistentry>

   <varlistentry>
    <term>-t <replaceable>to</replaceable></term>
    <listitem><para>
      Specify the character set <replaceable>of</replaceable>

   </varlistentry>

   <varlistentry>
    <term>-l <replaceable>leaderspec</replaceable></term>
    <listitem><para>
      Specify a simple modification string for MARC leader. The
      <replaceable>leaderspec</replaceable> is a list of pos=value
      pairs, where pos is an integer offset (0 - 23) for leader. Value
      is either a quoted string or an integer (character value in decimal).
      Pairs are comma separated. For example, to set leader at offset 9
      to a, use <literal>9='a'</literal>.

   <varlistentry>
    <term>-s <replaceable>prefix</replaceable></term>
    <listitem><para>
      Writes a chunk of records to a separate file with prefix given,
      i.e. splits a record batch into files with only at most
      "chunk" ISO2709 record per file. By default chunk is 1 (one record
      per file). See option <literal>-C</literal>.

      Makes yaz-marcdump prints record number and input file offset
      of each record read.
     </para></listitem>
   </varlistentry>

   <varlistentry>
    <term>-n</term>
    <listitem><para>

   </varlistentry>

   <varlistentry>
    <term>-v</term>
    <listitem><para>
      Writes more information about the parsing process.
      Useful if you have ill-formatted ISO2709 records as input.

 <refsect1><title>EXAMPLES</title>
  <para>
   The following command converts MARC21/USMARC in MARC-8 encoding to
   MARC21/USMARC in UTF-8 encoding. Leader offset 9 is set to 'a'.
   Both input and output records are ISO2709 encoded.
   <screen>
    yaz-marcdump -f MARC-8 -t UTF-8 -o marc -l 9=97 marc21.raw >marc21.utf8.raw
   </screen>
  </para>
  <para>
   The same records may be converted to MARCXML instead in UTF-8:
   <screen>
    yaz-marcdump -f MARC-8 -t UTF-8 -o marcxml marc21.raw >marcxml.xml
   </screen>
  </para>

  <para>
   Turbo MARC is a compact XML notation with same semantics as
   MARCXML, but which allows for faster processing via XSLT. In order
   to generate Turbo MARC records encoded in UTF-8 from MARC21 (ISO), one
   could use:
   <screen>
    yaz-marcdump -f MARC8 -t UTF8 -o turbomarc -i marc marc21.raw >out.xml
   </screen>
  </para>
