✨ sc_warts2csv(1) ✨

okay so bestie, this is a page from the General Commands Manual for sc_warts2csv, and it's genuinely one of the most straightforward little tools ever — iykyk 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

sc_warts2csv — dump traceroutes collected by scamper in csv format

like, that's it. that's the whole job. it takes traceroutes and gives you CSV. slay. 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

sc_warts2csv [file ...]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

The sc_warts2csv utility provides a CSV dump of traceroute records in warts(5) files.

no cap, that's the entire personality. it reads those warts(5) files and hands you back CSV like the icon it is. ✨

but listen — sc_warts2csv does not support warts records other than traceroute. for non-traceroute records it simply produces no output. not an error, not a warning, just... silence. 🙈 literally gives nothing. don't come for it, it told you upfront. 💀

🔥 EXAMPLES 🔥

okay so picture this: you've got two warts(5) files named file1.warts and file2.warts (yes those are the actual names, keep up 💅). the following dumps all trace records contained within them:

sc_warts2csv file1.warts file2.warts

and now the compressed era 🦋 — given a compressed warts file named file3.warts.bz2, the following dumps all trace records contained within:

bzcat file3.warts.bz2 | sc_warts2csv

see what she did there? piped it straight through with no filename at all. main character energy fr fr. 👑

also, the academic citation that you should absolutely keep around because it's iconic:
