Hello Oza, I do recall our discussions. Since both you and Vinayak use non-work email addresses, I thought maybe you both worked for the same company, and he had taken over the task. ;-) I do like the simplicity of Vinayak's latest patch-set, but it would be ideal if it could be restricted to 64-bit and just use the original RAM dump file. It's also reasonable to offer an option to save it as separate ELF file. So I don't think it would take much to update his patch to get that done. But certainly you can post your version, or perhaps patch Vinayak's, as long as the end result covers the requests above.
