  34 NAME
  35        vcd2lxt2 - Converts VCD files to LXT2 files
  36
  37 SYNTAX
  38        vcd2lxt2 [option]... [VCDFILE] [LXTFILE]
  39
  40 DESCRIPTION
  41        Converts VCD files to LXT2 files.
  42
  43 OPTIONS
  44        -v,--vcdname &lt;filename&gt;
  45               Specify VCD input filename.
  46
  47        -l,--lxtname &lt;filename&gt;
  48               Specify LXT2 output filename.
  49
  50        -d,--depth &lt;value&gt;
  51               Specify 0..9 gzip compression depth, default is 4.
  52
  53        -m,--maxgranule &lt;value&gt;
  54               Specify number of granules per section, default is 8.  One gran-
  55               ule is equal to 32 timsteps.
  56
  57        -b,--break &lt;value&gt;
  58               Specify break size (default = 0 = off).  When the break size  is
  59               exceeded, the LXT2 dumper will dump all state information at the
  60               next convenient granule plus dictionary boundary.
  61
  62        -p,--partialmode &lt;mode&gt;
  63               Specify partial zip mode 0 = monolithic, 1 = separation.   Using
  64               a  value of 1 expands LXT2 filesize but provides fast access for
  65               very large traces.  Note that the default mode is neither  mono-
  66               lithic nor separation: partial zip is disabled.
  67
  68        -c,--checkpoint &lt;mode&gt;
  69               Specify  checkpoint  mode.   0  is on which is default, and 1 is
  70               off.  This is disabled when the break size is active.
  71
  72        -h,--help
  73               Show help screen.
  74

  76
  77        EXAMPLES
  78
  79        Note that you should specify  dumpfile.vcd  directly  or  use  &quot;-&quot;  for
  80        stdin.
  81
  82        vcd2lxt dumpfile.vcd dumpfile.lxt --depth 9 --break 1073741824
  83               This  sets the compression level to 9 and sets the break size to
  84               1GB.
  85
  86        vcd2lxt dumpfile.vcd dumpfile.lxt --depth 9 --maxgranule 256
  87               Allows more granules per section which allows for  greater  com-
  88               pression.
  89
  90 LIMITATIONS
  91        vcd2lxt2  does  not store glitches as these are coalesced together into
  92        one value change during the writing of the LXT2 file.
