.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. |

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

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. |
