Trace_dump

NAME

trace_dump -- lists in a textual form the contents of a trace file.

SYNOPSIS

trace_dump file

DESCRIPTION

trace_dump extracts the contents of a trace file and lists it in textual format. It is primarily a debugging tool for use with io_lib, but can serve as a useful way to query the contents of a trace file outside of graphical programs such as Trev. The file may be of any supported trace format (and so this tool replaces the older scf_dump program).

Each portion of the trace file is listed in its own block. The block names output are "[Trace]" (containing general information such as the number of samples), "[Bases]", "[A_Trace]", "[C_Trace]", "[G_Trace]", "[T_Trace]" and "[Info]" (containing the free text comments).
