# Earthworm Module: dumpwave

Contributed by:

## Function

Dump a waveform data file to the screen.

## Details

Dumpwave dumps a header summary and the contents of a TYPE_TRACEBUF2 or TYPE_TRACEBUF waveform data file to the screen.

Dumpwave reads a binary file of "raw" tracebuf messages, written one after another with no other header info. (The file format that Dumpwave reads is the same format the tankplayer reads, and can be produced by trig2disk or waveman2disk with "DataFormat tank". )

Command line arguments:

    argument 1 = file to dump from
    optional argument 2 = pin# to dump

For example:

dumpwave \earthworm\tanks\20060530_185505.00_MAN

Output will look something like the following for each tracebuf that's in the wave file:

      version: 20
      s.c.n.l: NP1.HHN.ZZ.01
        pinno:     3
        nsamp:   500
