TWINWAVE(1)	       Simulation Wave Viewer Multiplexer	     TWINWAVE(1)

NAME
     twinwave  -  Wraps  multiple GTKWave sessions in one window or two synchro-
     nized windows

SYNTAX
     twinwave <arglist1> <separator> <arglist2>

DESCRIPTION
     Wraps multiple  GTKWave  sessions	with  synchronized  markers,  horizontal
     scrolling, and zooming.

EXAMPLES
     To run this program the standard way type:

     twinwave filename1.vcd filename1.sav + filename2.vcd filename2.sav
	    Two  synchronized  viewers are then opened in one window.  Note that
	    accelerator keys for menus will be disabled as some window	managers
	    have focus issues and route keystrokes to the wrong part of the win-
	    dow.

     twinwave filename1.vcd filename1.sav ++ filename2.vcd filename2.sav
	    Two synchronized viewers are then opened in two windows.

LIMITATIONS
     twinwave  uses the GtkSocket/GtkPlug mechanism to embed two gtkwave(1) ses-
     sions into one window.  The amount of coupling is currently limited to com-
     munication of temporal information.   Other  than	that,  the  two  gtkwave
     processes are isolated from each other as if the viewers were spawned sepa-
     rately.   Keep  in  mind that using the same save file for each session may
     cause unintended behavior problems if the save  file  is  written	back  to
     disk:  only  the  session written last will be saved.  (i.e., the save file
     isn't cloned and made unique to each session.)  Note that twinwave compiled
     against Quartz (not X11) on OSX as well as MinGW does not place  both  ses-
     sions in a single window.
