cpeldump

Synopsis

$ cpeldump --input-file [--output-file ] [--verbose]

Description

Cpeldump pretty-prints a CPEL format file. This is often useful for a number of reasons, including the ability to use a text editor to search for specific events. Depending on the specific instrumentation involved, event logs can be of very long duration. Hence, the displayed timestamp format: hhh:mm:ss:msec:usec.

Sample output:

Enhancement opportunities

Delta vs. absolute timestamp format, to shrink the output width. Sorting, filtration, event-chasing (see the g2 event chasing writeup)
