8   .SH DESCRIPTION
9   .B mon
10 < is an interactive command-driven file manipulation tool that is inspired
11 < by the "Amiga Monitor" by Timo Rossi <trossi@jyu.fi>. It has commands and
12 < features similar to a machine code monitor/debugger, but it is not intended
13 < to be used for debugging. It doesn't operate on physical or virtual RAM
14 < locations of a process but rather on a fixed-size (but adjustable) buffer with
15 < adresses starting at 0. Also, there are no commands to trace code, set
18 < breakpoints etc. There are, however, built-in PowerPC, 680x0, 80x86, 6502 and
19 < 8080 disassemblers.
20 < .PP
21 < If you give no command line arguments, mon enters interactive mode.
22 < Otherwise, all arguments are interpreted and executed as mon commands.

16   .PP
17   Type "h" to get a list of supported commands.
18   .PP
26 When mon is started as
27 .BR rmon ,
28 it enters "real mode". That is, all memory related functions no longer
29 operate on the buffer but on "real" (virtual) memory. This is probably
30 of not much use.
31 .PP
19   For more information, see the included "README" file.
20 + .SH OPTIONS
21 + .TP
22 + .B \-m
23 + enables symbolic MacOS A-Trap and low memory globals display in the 680x0
24 + disassembler
25 + .TP
26 + .B \-r
27 + makes mon operate in real (virtual) memory space instead of an allocated
28 + buffer
29 + .PP
30 + If no additional command line arguments are given, mon enters interactive
31 + mode. Otherwise, all remaining arguments are interpreted and executed as mon
32 + commands.
