rktimes_offset.awk man page

SYNOPSIS

       awk -f rktimes_offset.awk <rktimes-child> <file-to-align>

DESCRIPTION

       The rktimes_offset.awk script is used to align the data points  in  one
       file  with those in another.  Alignment might be needed if one file was
       recorded at a later time than the other.  The script works by computing
       the difference between the start time for each file and adjusting the X
       axis for the second file accordingly.  The result can then be displayed
       simultaneously with the first file without any alignment problems.

EXAMPLE

       To offset the "foo.out" file based on the "rktimes-1234.out" file.

              rktimes-1234.out:
              # start: 20
              0 1.0
              1 1.5
               ...

              foo.out:
              # start: 22
              0 2.0
              1 3.0
               ...

              $ awk -f rktimes_offset.awk rktimes-1234.out foo.out
              # start: 20
              2 2.0
              3 3.0
