.SH DESCRIPTION |
11 |
|
|
.B mon |
12 |
|
|
is an interactive command-driven file manipulation tool that is inspired |
13 |
|
|
by the "Amiga Monitor" by Timo Rossi <trossi@jyu.fi>. It has commands and |
14 |
|
|
features similar to a machine code monitor/debugger, but it is not intended |
15 |
|
|
to be used for debugging. It doesn't operate on physical or virtual RAM |
16 |
|
|
locations of a process but rather on a fixed-size (but adjustable) buffer with |
17 |
|
|
adresses starting at 0. Also, there are no commands to trace code, set |
18 |
|
|
breakpoints etc. There are, however, built-in PowerPC, 680x0, 6502 and 8080 |
19 |
|
|
disassemblers. |

.PP |
21 |
|
|
If you give no command line arguments, mon enters interactive mode. |
22 |
|
|
Otherwise, all arguments are interpreted and executed as mon commands. |
23 |

24 |
|
|
Type "h" to get a list of supported commands. |

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. |
