Expand full structure

[Preston Moore]

Ok perfect. That is now behaving exactly as I needed it to. Thanks!

Here’s a second question, is there a way to instruct strace  to not pretty print flags values? For example, in the previously mentioned line can I get the integer value of st_mode rather than "S_IFREG | 0644"? I’m working on a tool that parses strace output and would like to avoid having to do some sort of lookup of S_IFREG’s integer value and perform the bitwise or with 0644 (octal right?) myself.

Thanks again,
Preston
