I am about to write a program to read this information (i.e., currency of various dumps at various levels) and translate it into something human-readable, as well as let the user make changes. Not a difficult task, but I thought I'd ask before I started - does someone have such a utility? (Of course, the /etc/ddamn file should have been designed as ASCII text in the first place, but that's another story.)
