Re: getting at raw command line

As i said, when you start program 'p whatever ' %esp
points place on stack where number of parameters was
put ex. 
$p 1 2 3 -> movl (%esp),%ecx => %ecx=3 )

next (%esp+4) adress of program name ex. 

$/home/usr/bin/p 1 2 3 -> (%esp+4) adres of string
"/home/usr/bin/p"

(%esp+8)(+16 if you have 64-bit arch) adress of text
string of first parameter, so if you write

$ p * -> movl (%esp+8),%ecx / movq (%rsp+16),%rcx
        movl (%ecx),%ebx / movq (%rcx),%rbx
       %ecx=42 ( '*' )
so now you can do with it whatever you want ( write
using SYS_WRITE, printf etc )
