OK. I don't think df/dd actually exist in the code, so I think the help is just out of date, by about 20 years. 'd' definitely works as intended and does what the help says as far as I'm concerned. The output is pretty similar to hexdump -C for example. Also xmon isn't a debugger it's a crash handler :) > I'll take a look at Balbir's patch and see if I can help move it along. Actually take a look at mine instead. cheers
