//
// Usage:
// go tool addr2line binary
//
// Addr2line reads hexadecimal addresses, one per line and without a 0x prefix,
// from standard input. For each input address, addr2line prints two output lines,
// first the name of the function containing the address and second the file:line
// of the source code corresponding to that address.

// it may be deleted entirely in future releases.

// objdump simulation - only enough to make pprof work on Macs // Objdump is a minimal simulation of the GNU objdump tool,

//
// Usage:
// go tool objdump binary start end
//
// Objdump disassembles the binary starting at the start address and
// stopping at the end address. The start and end addresses are program
// counters written in hexadecimal without a leading 0x prefix.
//
// It prints a sequence of stanzas of the form:
//
// file:line
// address: assembly
// address: assembly
// ...
//
// Each stanza gives the disassembly for a contiguous range of addresses
// all mapped to the same original source file and line number.
//
// The disassembler is missing (golang.org/issue/7452) but will be added
// before the Go 1.3 release.
//
// This tool is intended for use only by pprof; its interface may change or
// it may be deleted entirely in future releases.
