.SH NOTES
.I strace-log-merge
does not work well with
.B strace
logs generated by
.B strace -tt
invocation that pass midnight, as those lack the information required
for the proper sorting.
Employing the
.B -ttt
option in the respective
.B strace
invocation should solve the problem.
.\"
.SH BUGS
.I strace-log-merge
does not perform any checks whether the files specified are in the correct
format and implies that only files from a single
.I strace
session match
.IR STRACE_LOG ".*"
glob pattern.
.\"
.SH HISTORY
The initial version of
.I strace-log-merge
was written by Denys Vlasenko in 2012.
.\"
.SH REPORTING BUGS
Problems with
.B strace-log-merge
should be reported to the
.B strace
mailing list at <strace\-devel@lists.sourceforge.net>.
