Simplified start of a sequence chart viewer with global tracing activated\&.
.LP
Convenient to be used from the command line (erl -s et_viewer)\&.

.LP
Start a sequence chart viewer for trace events (messages/actions)
.LP
A filter_fun() takes an event record as sole argument and returns false | true | {true, NewEvent}\&.
.LP
If the \fIcollector_pid\fR is \fIundefined\fR a new \fIet_collecor\fR will be started with the following parameter settings: \fIparent_pid\fR, \fIevent_order\fR, \fItrace_global\fR, \fItrace_pattern\fR, \fItrace_port\fR, \fItrace_max_queue\fR, \fItrace_client\fR, \fIdict_insert\fR and \fIdict_delete\fR\&. The new \fIet_viewer\fR will register itself as an \fIet_collecor\fR subscriber\&.
