NAME
fstrm_dump - Display metadata and contents of Frame Streams file.
SYNOPSIS
fstrm_dump input-file [output-file]
DESCRIPTION
fstrm_dump opens input-file and prints its framing metadata to stderr
and frame data to stdout. The input-file may be "-" to read Frame
Streams data from standard input.
Frame data is printed as a single line quoted string with non-printable
characters replaced by backslash-prefixed hex escape sequences. For
example, a frame containing "Hello, world\n" would have its data
printed as:
"Hello, world\x0a"
The only framing metadata expected in a Frame Streams file are the
start frame with a content type field, the data frame lengths, and the
stop frame. These are printed, respectively, as:
FSTRM_CONTROL_START
FSTRM_CONTROL_FIELD_CONTENT_TYPE (N bytes)
"content-type"
Data frame (N) bytes
FSTRM_CONTROL_STOP
If fstrm_dump is given the second output-file parameter, input frames
are additionally written to output-file. This is mainly useful for
regression testing of the fstrm_file_writer code.
