A little off topic, but my problem with SMF is that there is not a "schema-language" that formally describes the data. If there were such a thing, then it would be much easier to use this schema to generate code to parse SMF data for various purposes.
Sure, there are assember DSECTS - but these don't have real data-types in them and lack sufficient semantics to deduce even basic types.
