Hmm.  On Linux I'd use objdump:

	objdump -D myprogram | sed -ne'/radius/,/^$/p' > radius.disas

This extracts the assembly dump of the radius() function into the
file 'radius.disas'.

Not sure how to do this on a Mac.  (It should be possible to install
objdump on Mac, but I don't own a Mac so I've no idea.)
