4 | the last one is root directory for the new trace (this can be omitted, |
5 | by default it is 'foo') |

10 | There is also an script file 'sysInfo' which is used to get system information |
11 | from your local machine, the information is saved in 'sysInfo.out' which will |
12 | be read by 'convert' later. If the old tracefile is generated in other machine, |
13 | then the 'sysInfo.out' should be gotten from that machine. |
