#!/usr/bin/perl # This script processes strace -f output. It displays a graph of invoked # subprocesses, and is useful for finding out what complex commands do. # You will probably want to invoke strace with -q as well, and with # -s 100 to get complete filenames. # The script can also handle the output with strace -t, -tt, or -ttt. # It will add elapsed time for each process in that case. # This script is Copyright (C) 1998 by Richard Braakman <dark@xs4all.nl>. # Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without # modification, are permitted provided that the following conditions # are met: # 1.
