# 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.
