shmidcat - Online in the Cloud

This is the command shmidcat that can be run in the OnWorks free hosting provider using one of our multiple free online workstations such as Ubuntu Online, Fedora Online, Windows online emulator or MAC OS online emulator

PROGRAM:

NAME


shmidcat - Copies stdin/file to a shared memory block for gtkwave(1)

SYNTAX


shmidcat [VCDFILE]

DESCRIPTION


Copies either the file specified at the command line or stdin (if no file specified) line
by line to a shared memory block. stdout will contain a shared memory ID which should be
passed on to gtkwave(1).

EXAMPLES


To run this program the standard way type:

cat whatever.vcd | shmidcat
The shared memory ID is emitted to stdout.

shmidcat whatever.vcd | gtkwave -v -I whatever.sav
GTKWave directly grabs the ID from stdin.

LIMITATIONS


This program is mainly for illustrative and testing purposes only. Its primary use is for
people who wish to write interactive VCD dumpers for gtkwave(1) as its source code may be
examined, particularly the emit_string() function. It can also be used to test if an
existing VCD file will load properly in interactive mode. Note that it can also be used
to redirect VCD files which are written into a pipe to gtkwave(1) in a non-blocking
fashion.
