aida2flat \- Convert AIDA data files to a flat format
6
[\fIoptions\fR] \fIaidafile \fR[\fIaidafile2 \fR...]
8
Convert AIDA data files to a flat format which is more human\-readable then the
9
XML (and by default also plottable directly using make\-plots). The output is by
10
default written out to standard output unless the \fB\-\-split\fR, \fB\-\-smart\-output\fR,
11
\fB\-\-gnuplot\fR, or \fB\-\-output\fR options are specified. When specifying either input or
12
output filenames, a '\-' is used to refer to stdin or stdout as appropriate.
14
Histograms can also be filtered by AIDA path, using the \fB\-m\fR or \fB\-M\fR options for a
15
positive or negative regex pattern patch respectively.
18
\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR
19
show this help message and exit
21
\fB\-o\fR OUTPUT, \fB\-\-output\fR=\fIOUTPUT\fR
22
Write all histos to a single output file, rather than
23
the default writing to stdout. stdout can be
24
explicitly specified by setting '\-' as the output
25
filename. This option will be disregarded if \fB\-\-split\fR,
26
\fB\-\-smart\-output\fR, or \fB\-\-gnuplot\fR is specified.
28
\fB\-s\fR, \fB\-\-split\fR
29
Write each histo to a separate output file, with names
30
based on the histo path
32
\fB\-S\fR, \fB\-\-smart\-output\fR
33
Write to output files with names based on the
34
corresponding input filename. This option will be
35
disregarded if \fB\-\-split\fR is specified.
37
\fB\-g\fR, \fB\-\-gnuplot\fR
38
Provide output suitable for Gnuplot's 'plot "foo.dat"
39
with xye'. This option implies \fB\-\-split\fR and will
40
override \fB\-\-output\fR or \fB\-\-smart\-output\fR
42
\fB\-\-plotinfodir\fR=\fIPLOTINFODIR\fR
43
directory which may contain plot header information
45
\fB\-m\fR PATHPATTERNS, \fB\-\-match\fR=\fIPATHPATTERNS\fR
46
Only write out histograms whose $path/$name string
49
\fB\-M\fR PATHUNPATTERNS, \fB\-\-unmatch\fR=\fIPATHUNPATTERNS\fR
50
Exclude histograms whose $path/$name string matches
