Subject: [PATCH 6/6] mtd-utils/nanddump.c: Add "forcebinary" flag
Date: Thu, 8 Jul 2010 13:50:09 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1278622209-20149-7-git-send-email-norris@broadcom.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1278622209-20149-1-git-send-email-norris@broadcom.com>

Restrict binary dumping so that by default, binary garbage is not
printed directly to a terminal. Output redicted to files or piped to
other commands should not be affected (as judged by "isatty(ofd)").
A new flag "-a" or "--forcebinary" is included so that users can
override this behavior if necessary.
