The sdump command displays all information on some or all of your ships. sdump is a combination of ship, cargo, and sstat. Each ship's information is printed on one very long line. Fields are separated by a single space.

This command is designed to be used for input to an empire tool such as ve.
In the syntax of the sdump command <SHIPS> are the ships on which you wish information, [<fields>] are the fields you wish to dump. If no fields are specified, all fields are printed. (see info Syntax).
An sdump command lists all selected ships headed by:
