Scenario…
If there are several crash reports in /var/crash.
what is the cli command I would use to export the content of each crash report to text files into a Desktop directory?
Here’s a good answer describing the content:

It’s just a text file so it’s totally readable as is.
The only thing that’s not readable is the coredump, but I doubt that’s what you’re looking for?

Do the crash reports in /var/crash contain passwords or are they removed or masked out?
I don’t have any currently I can just look at atm. A google search might give that answer.
Anyway, you already answered my original question. Thank you.
Looks like that post says coredump is containing passwords.
I’m actually working on cron script to automate specific reports to aid in troubleshooting.
