dmassage - dmesg parser

This tool parses the dmesg of your OpenBSD system, and can do three things with that information:

• make the kernel boot faster
• reduce kernel size
• show all devices in a tree-like hierarchy

Originally developed for OpenBSD, but works on NetBSD as well.

dmassage is written in Perl.
