I don't think I have anything like that, though it's certainly a
possibility. The first versions of the cache ran as a console-mode app,
and spewed-out lots of 'interesting' text, but that's not really what
you're asking about.

I do badly need some kind of tool which can examine the state of everything
in the cache, (probably as a tree-view), because the only way to examine it
at the moment (other than attaching a debugger, and it's still hard to find
a specific map entry like that) is to get the shell to ask for something -
which often changes the state of the cache anyway.

I suspect that rather than being a separate tool (which would have to pull
a lot of information across process boundaries), I would have some method
for telling the cache to pop-up a window of its own.

It needs a message loop adding anyway, to get the graceful shutdown working
properly.

I'll file all these things as bugs against me.

Cheers,

Will
