Is there anyhing similar available for FreeBSD/ELF? Yes, I've read the next sentence that says that the Perl-to-C compiler is much more effective, but this reference to undump just piqued my curiosity, and I just had to ask :) G'luck, Peter -- If I had finished this sentence, To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
