guaclog(1)		       Apache Guacamole			    guaclog(1)

NAME
       guaclog - Guacamole input log interpreter

SYNOPSIS
       guaclog [-f] [FILE]...

DESCRIPTION
       guaclog	is an interpreter which	accepts	Guacamole protocol dumps, such
       as those	saved when input logging is enabled for	 a  Guacamole  session
       recording,  writing human-readable text logs as output.	guaclog	is es-
       sentially an implementation of a	Guacamole client which accepts its in-
       put from	files instead of a network connection, however unlike  guacenc
       it only handles instructions related to user input.

       Each  FILE  specified will be translated	into a new human-readable text
       file named FILE.txt. Existing files will	not be overwritten; the	inter-
       preting process for any input file will be aborted if it	 would	result
       in overwriting an existing file.

       Guacamole  acquires  a write lock on recordings as they are being writ-
       ten. By default,	guaclog	will check whether  the	 each  input  file  is
       locked  and  will  refuse to read and interpret an input	file if	it ap-
       pears to	be an in-progress recording. This behavior can	be  overridden
       by specifying the -f option. Interpreting an in-progress	recording will
       still  work;  the  resulting human-readable text	file will simply cover
       the user's session only up to the current point in time.

OPTIONS
       -f     Overrides	the default behavior of	guaclog	such that input	 files
	      will  be interpreted even	if they	appear to be recordings	of in-
	      progress Guacamole sessions.

OUTPUT FORMAT
       The output format of guaclog is meant to	match what the user would have
       typed within a typical text editor as closely as	possible,  while  also
       representing  non-printable  characters and keyboard shortcuts in a hu-
       man-readable way.

       All output is on	one line, with new lines started only as a  result  of
       the user	pressing enter/return. Keys which produce printable characters
       are  translated into their corresponding	Unicode	codepoints and encoded
       as UTF-8, while non-printable  characters  are  enclosed	 within	 angle
       brackets	 and  represented  with	 their	human-readable names. Keyboard
       shortcuts which are made	up of more than	one key	 are  enclosed	within
       angle  brackets,	 with  each  key within	the shortcut separated by plus
       signs.

       Spaces and newlines are included	as  their  Unicode  character,	except
       when represented	within a keyboard shortcut, in which case their	human-
       readable	 names	are used instead. As the output	of pressing tab	can be
       easily mistaken for spaces, and as pressing tab frequently has  special
       meaning	within	applications,  tab is always represented by its	human-
       readable	name.

       Modifiers are output as part of keyboard	shortcuts only.	Simple	press-
       ing  and	 releasing  of	a  modifier will be ignored, as	are presses of
       shift or	AltGr while typing.

       For example, if the user	typed "Hello WORLD!", selected	everything  by
       pressing	 Ctrl+a, copied	the selected text by pressing Ctrl+c, switched
       to another application by pressing Alt+Shift+Tab, and then  pasted  the
       previously-copied  text by pressing Ctrl+v, the resulting log from gua-
       clog would look like:

       Hello WORLD!<Ctrl+a><Ctrl+c><Alt+Shift+Tab><Ctrl+v>
