Thanks Cai and Poornima, All these changes has been merged. I would request you to take the first call if somebody faces some problem on this. Thanks once again for this huge work that you did. --Subrata > > The new version simplifies code layout, and all tools under lib/ > directory are standalone and reusable, all configurable variables are > under the file runkdump.conf.
