dcmdterm —
graph dives on the terminal
dcmdterm |
[ -alntv

The
dcmdterm utility accepts XML files
generated by
dcmd(1) and graphs depths and/or
temperatures on the terminal. Multiple dives are stacked atop each other. Its
arguments are as follows:
-
-
-a- Accumulate dives instead of showing them stacked. This is useful for
free-diving where multiple dives are done in sequence.
-
-
-l- Show the legend.
-
-
-n- Don't show UTF-8 or ANSI colours.
-
-
-t- Show temperatures if the dive profile contains them.
-
-
-v- Parse files in verbose mode.
-
-
- files...
- XML input files with one or more dives.
dcmdterm uses ANSI/VT100 terminal escapes for
console manipulation and colours. If
files is
empty or “-”, standard input is used.
By default,
dcmdterm graphs depth. Each dive
is associated with a colour that is the same for both graphs. In practise,
more than three dives is a little much. A title is printed above the graphs,
along with the associated line colour, identifying the dive.
Multiple graphs are stacked atop each other with the x-axis being the relative
time into the dive. In
-a accumulation
mode, however, graphs are shown as starting at the first date and time. (Dives
must have been parsed with a date and time). This is useful, for example, with
a sequence of free-dives.
The
dcmdterm utility exits 0 on
success, and >0 if an error occurs.
To pipe the output of the day's free-dives from on a Suunto D6i:
dcmd -r "" "suunto
d6i" | dcmdterm -a
This will extract only the current day's dives, then format them alongside
(instead of stacked) using UTF-8 characters.
To compare two dive profiles previously downloaded into
dive1.xml and
dive2.xml, run:
dcmdterm dive1.xml dive2.xml
dcmd(1)
