trascan1

Auxiliary tra programs

Part of tra-aux(1).

Usage

stdmerge {cmd [args] | stdsplit}

tradump dbfile

trascan replica [path]

Overview

These are auxiliary tools meant to help in the use of tra(1).

Stdmerge executes the named command, folding standard error into standard output. Stdsplit performs the opposite transformation. Thus,

	ssh -t -t stdmerge command | stdsplit

keeps the standard output and error of command separate even though SSH has run it inside a PTY, which necessarily merges the two. This seemingly odd contortion is useful for disabling Nagle's algorithm on a TCP connection using SSH.

Tradump writes a textual representation of the named dbfile to standard output. It is mainly useful for debugging.

Trascan connects to replica and has it scan its file system for changes.
