That's part of my problem with this stuff, I haven't spent enough time with
some of the basic tools...
I sure wouldn't mind finding something of the
sort that would run under
linux with various target processors, for picking apart code...
I'm probably oversimplifying, but objdump -D does a reasonable job. and
you can find gcc for most cpus (where wordsize >= 16).
objdump is part of binutils, which is part of the gnu toolchain. I've even used it on raw binary files, by telling
binutils what the cpu
and byte order was...
(not that I would ever disassemble anyone else's code. nah ah. not me. no
way.)
:-)
I'll have to give that a try and see what it comes up with, then.
