if it's "/var/adm/ras/vmcore.0" then it's a system core file and you can
use kdb and the /unix kernel link to read it but you need to know kdb....
Program core files you usually can't read unless you know the source code,
it's usually c program output which is encrypted anyway. It's kind of like
putting a Unix shell script in debug mode:

set -x
