## Description

The minidumper utility can be used to create a minidump of a running Windows process. This minidump can be later analysed using breakpad or Windows debugging tools.

minidumper can be used with cygwin's Just-In-Time debugging facility in exactly the same way as dumper (See dumper(1)).

minidumper can also be started from the command line to create a minidump of any running process. For compatibility with dumper the target process is terminated after dumping unless the `-n` option is given.
