NAME
       vcd2lxt2 - Converts VCD files to LXT2 files

SYNTAX
       vcd2lxt2 [option]... [VCDFILE] [LXTFILE]

DESCRIPTION
       Converts VCD files to LXT2 files.

OPTIONS
       -v,--vcdname &lt;filename&gt;
	      Specify VCD input filename.

       -l,--lxtname &lt;filename&gt;
	      Specify LXT2 output filename.

       -d,--depth &lt;value&gt;
	      Specify 0..9 gzip compression depth, default is 4.

       -m,--maxgranule &lt;value&gt;
	      Specify number of granules per section, default is 8.  One gran-
	      ule is equal to 32 timsteps.

       -b,--break &lt;value&gt;
	      Specify break size (default = 0 = off).  When the break size  is
	      exceeded, the LXT2 dumper will dump all state information at the
	      next convenient granule plus dictionary boundary.

       -p,--partialmode &lt;mode&gt;
	      Specify partial zip mode 0 = monolithic, 1 = separation.	 Using
	      a	 value of 1 expands LXT2 filesize but provides fast access for
	      very large traces.  Note that the default mode is neither	 mono-
	      lithic nor separation: partial zip is disabled.

       -c,--checkpoint &lt;mode&gt;
	      Specify  checkpoint  mode.   0  is on which is default, and 1 is
	      off.  This is disabled when the break size is active.

       -h,--help
	      Show help screen.



       EXAMPLES

       Note that you should specify  dumpfile.vcd  directly  or	 use  &quot;-&quot;  for
       stdin.

       vcd2lxt dumpfile.vcd dumpfile.lxt --depth 9 --break 1073741824
	      This  sets the compression level to 9 and sets the break size to
	      1GB.

       vcd2lxt dumpfile.vcd dumpfile.lxt --depth 9 --maxgranule 256
	      Allows more granules per section which allows for	 greater  com-
	      pression.

LIMITATIONS
       vcd2lxt2	 does  not store glitches as these are coalesced together into
       one value change during the writing of the LXT2 file.
