### 4.2 Object Dump

hackt also provides `objdump` as a command for viewing the contents of a compiled object file as (questionably) human-readable text. The regression test suite uses `objdump` heavily to verify the contents of object files as they are transformed through the various compile phases. Occasionally, it may be useful to the casual or curious user for bug tracking.
