TRACESPLITDIR(1)
β¨ tracesplit_dir β the manual page bestie π
okay so this is tracesplit_dir, section 1 of the user commands, and it's literally the glow-up your trace files have been waiting for π¦
πΈ NAME πΈ
tracesplit_dir β splitting traces into two directions, no cap π
π SYNOPSIS π
tracesplit_dir inputuri outputuri_incoming outputuri_outgoing
three little arguments, one big slay β¨
π DESCRIPTION π
so here's the vibe: tracesplit_dir takes one trace and splits it into two tracefiles β one for each direction π«Ά
that's it. that's the whole thing. incoming goes one way, outgoing goes the other, and they both get their own lil file. main character energy fr fr π
π EXAMPLES π
like, say you've got a fat gzipped erf trace and you want it in two pieces:
tracesplit_dir erf:/traces/bigtrace.gz erf:in.gz erf:out.gz
boom. erf:in.gz catches the incoming, erf:out.gz catches the outgoing, and erf:/traces/bigtrace.gz is the original that gets read. iconic. ππ
