SYNOPSISbtparser [option]... [FILE]...
DESCRIPTIONbtparser is a command line tool that analyzes backtraces produced by

tion detection.
By default, btparser prints the backtrace tree created by parsing the
input file.

-V, --version
Displays version of btparser.
-?, --help
Print a help message describing all of btparser’s command-line

-g, --dendrogram
Cluster backtraces by their distance and print an ASCII repre‐

-l, --clusters=LEVEL
Print clusters cut from the dendrogram at the specified level.
Additional options
-i, --stdin
Read input from the standard input rather than file.
-m, --max-frames=FRAMES
When creating optimized backtrace or preparing backtrace for
comparison, limit the number of frames to FRAMES. (default 8)
-z, --min-cluster-size=SIZE
When printing clusters, ignore clusters that contain fewer than
SIZE objects. (default 2)
-d, --debug
Prints debug information when scanning/parsing the backtrace.
