NAME

       aida2flat - Convert AIDA data files to a flat format

SYNOPSIS

       aida2flat [options] aidafile [aidafile2 ...]

DESCRIPTION

       Convert  AIDA  data files to a flat format which is more human-readable then the XML (and by default also
       plottable directly using make-plots). The output is by default written out to standard output unless  the
       --split,  --smart-output,  --gnuplot,  or --output options are specified. When specifying either input or
       output filenames, a '-' is used to refer to stdin or stdout as appropriate.

       Histograms can also be filtered by AIDA path, using the -m or -M options for a positive or negative regex
       pattern patch respectively.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              show this help message and exit

       -o OUTPUT, --output=OUTPUT
              Write all histos to a single output file, rather than the default writing to stdout. stdout can be
              explicitly specified by setting '-' as the output filename. This option  will  be  disregarded  if
              --split, --smart-output, or --gnuplot is specified.

       -s, --split
              Write each histo to a separate output file, with names based on the histo path

       -S, --smart-output
              Write  to  output  files with names based on the corresponding input filename. This option will be
              disregarded if --split is specified.

       -g, --gnuplot
              Provide output suitable for Gnuplot's 'plot "foo.dat" with xye'. This option implies  --split  and
              will override --output or --smart-output

       --plotinfodir=PLOTINFODIR
              directory which may contain plot header information

       -m PATHPATTERNS, --match=PATHPATTERNS
              Only write out histograms whose $path/$name string matches these regexes

       -M PATHUNPATTERNS, --unmatch=PATHUNPATTERNS
              Exclude histograms whose $path/$name string matches these regexes
