.SH NAME
hotshot2calltree \- convert hotshot profiling data to KCachegrind calltree format
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B hotshot2calltree
[ \fB\-\-file\-limit\fP \fIlimit\fP ]
\fB\-o\fP \fIoutput\fP \fIinput\fP [ \fIinput\fP ... ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBhotshot2calltree\fP reads one or more pstat profiling data files
as output by the hotshot python profiler, and converts them into
calltree format for use by KCachegrind.
.PP
This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
\fB\-o\fP \fIoutput\fP
Write the calltree output into the given file for use by KCachegrind.
This may be \fB\-\fP if you wish to write to standard output.

Read the hotshot profiling data from the given file(s).
.TP
\fB\-\-file\-limit\fP \fIlimit\fP
Stop after the given number of input files.
.SH EXAMPLE
Suppose that you have used hotshot to profile a python app, with results
dumped to the file \fIpythongrind.prof\fP. You may then work with this
data in KCachegrind as follows.
