.SH NAME
grokevt-dumpmsgs \- A tool for dumping the contents of message databases built previously by grokevt-ripdll(1).
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBgrokevt-dumpmsgs \fImessage-db1\fB [\fImessage-db2\fB ...]
\fR
.SH DESCRIPTION
grokevt-dumpmsgs takes one or more message databases previously built with
grokevt-ripdll(1) and prints out all entries to stdout. This is mainly a
debugging tool, but may be useful for analyzing the message contents of
PE files while developing other applications.
.SH ARGUMENTS
\fBgrokevt-dumpmsgs\fR uses the following arguments:
.TP 
\fImessage-dbN\fR 
If multiple message databases are supplied, entries of all databases
are printed to stdout in the order they are provided.
.SH OUTOUT
grokevt-dumpmsgs prints each database entry out on a single line, in 
two comma-separated columns. The first column is the message ID, 
which is in the format:

.nf
\*(T<
          XXXX\-YYYYYYYY
        \*(T>
.fi

Here, XXXX represents the message's language code, and the YYYYYYYY 
represents the message's relative virtual address (RVA) within the message
block of the PE file. 
The second column contains the message itself. Messages containing 
special characters (such as newlines or commas) are encoded in the same
manner that grokevt-parselog(1) encodes them ("%XX" where XX is the 
hexadecimal value of the character).
.SH BUGS
Probably several. This particular script has not been extensively tested.
