NAME

       edb - graphical debugger and disassembler for executables

SYNOPSIS

        edb [OPTION]... [TARGET]

DESCRIPTION

       edb  (Evan's  Debugger)  is  a modular and modern disassembler and debugger for binary ELF
       files based on ptrace API and the capstone disassembly library.

       --help Show usage and exit.

       --symbols <file>
              generate symbols map for file <file>

       --attach <pid>
              attach the process of PID <pid> to debugger

       --run <program> [args...]
              open <program> in debugger with optional [args...]

       --version
              show version string and exit.

       --dump-version
              show version and exit.

EXAMPLE

       edb --symbols /lib/libc.so.6 > libc.so.6.map

            Will generate symbols for libc and save it in a text file. It's useful if you store this map files in the symbols directory configured in edb's preferences.

       for i in $(ls /lib); do edb --symbols $i > $(basename $i).map; done

             Useful to generate maps for all libs you have in /lib.

       edb --run /bin/ls

             Will open the ls program binary in debugger.

       edb --attach 1720

            Attach the process of PID 1720 to debugger.
