Brrrr .... ;)

OK, I never realized that .

BTW
I checked the source, and it looks like ALL will indeed dump all,
so something like
echo "all" | amflush -f whatever-your-config-is       
should do the trick

(well actually, you have to type Y as well I think.,
Maybe you need to do something with expect ;)
