It is used to convert groups of space characters into tab characters.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
For example:
<syntaxhighlight lang="console"> $ echo " asdf sdf" | unexpand | od -c 0000000 \t \t a s d f s d f \n 0000014 $ echo " asdf sdf" | od -c 0000000 0000020 a s d f s d f \n 0000032 </syntaxhighlight>
Here the echo command prints a string of text that includes multiple consecutive spaces, then the output is directed into the unexpand command. The resulting output is then displayed by the octal dump command od. At the second prompt, the same echo output is sent directly through the od command. As can be seen by comparing the two, the unexpand program converts sequences of eight spaces into single tabs (printed as '\t').
