# zombiescope(1)

simplifies SPARK dead path conjectures

## NAME

zombiescope - simplifies SPARK dead path conjectures

## SYNOPSIS

**zombiescope**  \[OPTIONS\] \[UNIT\]

## DESCRIPTION

ZombieScope for SPARK, **zombiescope**, analyses dead path conjectures generated by the Examiner for SPARK and attempts to determine their liveness automatically. For each FCdpcF\[0\] file read, ZombieScope will produce a FCsdpF\[0\] (simplified dead paths) file and an optional FCzlgF\[0\] (zombiescope log) file.

This manual page only summarises the **zombiescope** command-line flags, please refer to the full Simplifier manual for further information.

## OPTIONS

These options do not quite follow the usual GNU command line syntax as options start with a single dash instead of the usual two.

- FC**-help**F\[0\]

  Displays command line help.

- FC**-version**F\[0\]

  Displays version information.

- FC**-nolog**F\[0\]

  Do not generate a ZombieScope log file.

- FC**-log=**F\[0\]*file\_spec*

  Specify filename for the ZombieScope file.

- FC**-nowrap**F\[0\]

  Do not line wrap output files.

- FC**-plain**F\[0\]

  Adopt a plain output style (e.g. no dates or version numbers).

- FC**-norenum**F\[0\]

  Do not renumber hypotheses and conclusions in FCsdpF\[0\] files.

- FC**-hyp\_limit=**F\[0\]*LIMIT*

  Specify the maximum number of hypotheses that will be analysed.
