10 .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, 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.
23 .PP
24 Type "h" to get a list of supported commands.
25 .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
32 For more information, see the included "README" file.
