NAME

vcd2fst - Converts VCD files to FST files

SYNTAX

vcd2fst [option]... [VCDFILE] [FSTFILE]

Converts VCD files to FST files.

-v,--vcdname <filename>: Specify VCD/FSDB/VPD/WLF input filename. Processing of filetypes other than VCD requires that the appropriate 2vcd converter was found during ./configure.
-f,--fstname <filename>: Specify FST output filename.
-4,--fourpack: Indicates that LZ4 should be used for value change data (default).
-F,--fastpack: Indicates that fastlz should be used instead of LZ4 for value change data.
-4,--zlibpack: Indicates that zlib should be used instead of LZ4 for value change data.
-c,--compress: Indicates that the entire file should be run through gzip on close. This results in much smaller files at the expense of a one-time decompression penalty on file open during reads.
-p,--parallel: Indicates that parallel mode should be enabled. This spawns a worker thread to continue with FST block processing while conversion continues on the main thread for new FST block data.
-h,--help: Show help screen.

Note that you should specify dumpfile.vcd directly or use "-" for stdin.

vcd2fst dumpfile.vcd dumpfile.fst --compress: This indicates that the FST file should be post-compressed on close.
