The basic problem is that xmon memory commands like 'dd' do not properly display the data on LE instances. This means that not only is it difficult to read but one cannot copy-paste addresses from the output. This severely encumbers debugging using xmon on LE systems. It looks like prdump() is highly optimized but only works on BE. Have I missed something, or will it take a significant re-write of this code to fix the LE problem? Thanks, Doug
