VCD2LXT2(1)		      Filetype Conversion		   VCD2LXT2(1)

NAME
       vcd2lxt2 - Converts VCD files to LXT2 files

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

DESCRIPTION
       Converts VCD files to LXT2 files.

OPTIONS
       -v,--vcdname <filename>
	      Specify VCD input filename.

       -l,--lxtname <filename>
	      Specify LXT2 output filename.

       -d,--depth <value>
	      Specify 0..9 gzip compression depth, default is 4.

       -m,--maxgranule <value>
	      Specify number of granules per section, default is 8.  One gran‐
	      ule is equal to 32 timsteps.

       -b,--break <value>
	      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 <mode>
	      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 <mode>
	      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  "-"  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.
