NAME

pbc_disassemble - Parrot disassembler

SYNOPSIS

    pbc_disassemble [-bdh?] [-o outfile] [file.pbc]

DESCRIPTION

This uses the Parrot_disassemble() function from src/embed.c, which in turn uses the PDB_disassemble() function from src/debug.c.

Without non-option arguments it reads the pbc from STDIN.
