In addition, it must know the port on +which it should listen for X11 clients. Two cases are common: +.PP +.TP 5 +(1) The X11 server is on the same host as \fIxscope\fP. +In this case, the input port for \fIxscope\fP should be selected as an +X11 server on a different display, and the client DISPLAY argument +adjusted to select \fIxscope\fP . For example, if the X11 server is +on port 6001, display 1, then \fIxscope\fP can use port 6002 as its +input port. The client can use display 1 for direct access to X11 or +display 2 for access to \fIxscope\fP. +.PP +.TP 5 +(2) The X11 server is on a different host than \fIxscope\fP. +In this case the same input and output ports can be used, and the host +component of the DISPLAY is used to select \fIxscope\fP or X11. +.SH ARGUMENTS +.PP +.TP 10 +.BI \-i <input-port> +Specify the port that \fIxscope\fP will use to take requests from clients +(defaults to 1). +For X11, this port is automatically biased by 6000. +.PP +.TP 10 +.BI \-o <output-port> +Determines the port that +\fIxscope\fP will use to connect to X11 (defaults to 0). +For X11, this port is automatically biased by 6000. +.PP +.TP 10 +.BI \-h <host> +Determines the host that \fIxscope\fP will use to find its X11 server. +.PP +.TP 10 +.BI \-d <display> +Defines the display number. The display number is added to the input +and output port to give the actual ports which are used by \fIxscope\fP. +.PP +.TP 10 +.B \-q +Quiet output mode. Gives only the names of requests, replies, errors, and +events, but does not indicate contents. +.PP +.TP 10 +.BI \-v <print-level> +Determines the level of printing which \fIxscope\fP will provide. The +print-level can be 0 (same as quiet mode), 1, 2, 3, 4. The larger +numbers give more and more output. For example, a successful setup +returns a string which is the name of the vendor of the X11 server. +At level 1, the explicit field giving the length of the string is +suppressed since it can be inferred from the string. At level 2 and +above the length is explicitly printed. +.PP +.TP 10 +.B -r +Print only raw data without decoding it. +.PP +.TP 10 +.BI -D <debug-level> +Print debugging information at the specified level. +.PP +.TP 10 +.BI -S <n> +Toggle output on or off when SIGUSR1 is received. If \fIn\fP is 0, +the initial state is off. If \fIn\fP is 1, the initial state is on. +.PP +.TP 10 +.B -t +Terminate \fIxscope\fP when all clients close. +.SH INTERACTIVE MODE +.PP +When \fBxscope\fP receives an interrupt signal (normally generated by +Control-C) it enters an interactive mode in which it prompts for commands. +Available commands in this mode are: +.TP 10 +.B audio, a +Show current verbosity level for NAS protocol packets. +.TP 10 +\fBaudio\fP \fIn\fP, \fBa\fP \fIn\fP +Set current verbosity level for NAS protocol packets to \fIn\fP. +.TP 10 +.B break, b +List currently defined breakpoints. +.TP 10 +\fBbreak\fP \fIrequest...\fP, \fBb\fP \fIrequest...\fP +Create a breakpoint for the specified protocol requests. The breakpoint +will be enabled by default. When the breakpoint is enabled, \fBxscope\fP +will stop for interactive commands after processing a request of the +specified type. Requests and extensions may be specified by name or number. +If an extension is followed by a ":" and a number, it will only +break for the specified minor opcode for that extension. Note that since +extension opcodes are not known until the extension is first seen, breakpoints +cannot currently be set on extensions until after a QueryExtension request +and reply are processed for that extension, so users may need to initially +set a breakpoint on QueryExtension, and after processing that set the +breakpoint for the target extension. +.TP 10 +.B cont, c +Resume processing of data passing between server and clients. +.TP 10 +.B delete, del +Delete all breakpoints. +.TP 10 +\fBdelete\fP \fIbreakpoint...\fP, \fBdel\fP \fIbreakpoint...\fP +Delete listed breakpoints, specified by number. +.TP 10 +.B disable, d +Disable all breakpoints. +.TP 10 +\fBdisable\fP \fIbreakpoint...\fP, \fBd\fP \fIbreakpoint...\fP +Disable listed breakpoints, specified by number. +.TP 10 +.B enable, e +Enable all breakpoints. +.TP 10 +\fBenable\fP \fIbreakpoint...\fP, \fBe\fP \fIbreakpoint...\fP +Enable listed breakpoints, specified by number. +.TP 10 +.B help, ? +Print list of available commands. +.TP 10 +\fBhelp\fP \fIcommand...\fP, \fB?\fP \fIcommand...\fP +Describe specified command or commands. +.TP 10 +.B level, l +Show current verbosity level for X11 protocol packets. +.TP 10 +\fBlevel\fP \fIn\fP, \fBl\fP \fIn\fP +Set current verbosity level for X11 protocol packets to \fIn\fP. +.TP 10 +.B quit, q +Quit \fBxscope\fP. +.TP 10 +.B step, s +Process one request, then prompt for another command. +.SH EXAMPLES +.LP +xscope -v4 -hcleo -d0 -o0 -i1 +.PP +This command would have xscope communicate with an X11 server on host +``cleo'', display 0; xscope itself would be available on the current +host as display 1 (display of 0 plus the 1 of -i1).
