 From the truss(1) manual page:

     -r [!]fd,...
            Shows the full contents of the I/O buffer for each
            read() on any of the specified file descriptors. The
            output is formatted 32 bytes per line and shows each
            byte as an ASCII character (preceded by one blank) or
            as a 2-character C language escape sequence for con-
            trol characters such as horizontal tab (\t) and new-
            line (\n). If ASCII interpretation is not possible,
            the byte is shown in 2-character hexadecimal represen-
            tation. (The first 12 bytes of the I/O buffer for each
            traced read() are shown even in the absence of -r.)
            Default is -r!all.

      -w [!]fd,...
            Shows the contents of the I/O buffer for each write()
            on any of the specified file descriptors (see the -r
            option). Default is -w!all.
