Manage recorded trace files

The split and the parse options change how the trace information is stored and viewed on a recorded trace file.

split <file-path>

The split command puts the trace information for each process into different files. The file-path value is the full path to the trace file.

split thread <file-path>

The split thread command puts the trace information for each process and thread into different files. The thread option is optional. The file-path value is the full path to the trace file.

parse <file-path>

The trace parse option tries to translate the trace file to a format that is easier to read. The file-path value is the full path to the trace file.

parse test <file-path>

The trace parse test option is used to test parse. Nothing is written. The file-path value is the full path to the trace file.

The parsing can take time. If you have anti-virus software that monitors HTML-files, try not including the directory to speed up the parsing.
