[svn-r2737] Purpose:

	Feature
Description:
	Allow dumping of variable length records. This is a first-time
	stab at this. It doesn't break any tests on my Linux box and it
	does output the variable length data, but it might look ugly (it
	doesn't handle new-lines as of yet)...I'm open to suggestions on
	what should be done next, what new features to add/remove...
Platforms tested:
	Linux
