Another option instead of the hexdump format is just "xxd -i" (xxd is
part of vim), although that works best if the intermediary output is
written to a file (it populates the struct name automatically).
Something like:

for f in .../*pub.pem; do openssl x509 -outform DER -in ... >
"$(basename "...")_data" && xxd -i "$(basename "...")_data" ; done

Its output is nicely formatted with spaces and line wrapping.

Best,
Conrad
