<font face="Liberation Sans">Hi to all, <br>
<br>
Today I want to share one of y tools to make the process of
debugging portmon logs more faster and eye refreshing, this
nautilus script is intended for the users that has a GNU/Linux
with any of the Gnome flavors as a develop environment. (works
with the default Ubuntu's Unity)<br>
<br>
The goal is to clean the original portmon serial logs from all the
non essential "garbage" to make it more easy to analyze, but
remember that under certain circumstances you will have to look at
the original log, so this tool will preserver it.<br>
<br>
To make it work you must surf into the folder
~/.local/share/nautilus/scripts/ and copy it inside; It's as easy
as follow this instructions:</font>
<ul>
<li><font face="Liberation Sans">Press Alt+F2 and paste "</font><font
face="Liberation Sans"><font face="Liberation Sans">~/.local/share/nautilus/scripts/</font>"
in the box + Enter, </font><font face="Liberation Sans">a
nautilus window will open,</font></li>
<ul>
<li><font face="Liberation Sans">If it complains about the
folder not existing or do nothing, please do this extra
steps:</font></li>
<li><font face="Liberation Sans">Press Alt+F2 and paste "</font><font
face="Liberation Sans"><font face="Liberation Sans">~/.local/share/nautilus/",
</font></font><font face="Liberation Sans">A nautilus window
will open</font></li>
<li><font face="Liberation Sans"><font face="Liberation Sans">Create
a folder named "scripts" (without quotes) and open it, now
follow the next step<br>
</font></font></li>
</ul>
<li><font face="Liberation Sans">Just paste the file there,</font></li>
<li><font face="Liberation Sans">Right-click the file and select
properties, then permissions</font></li>
<li><font face="Liberation Sans">Tick the box about allowing to
run it as a program</font></li>
<li><font face="Liberation Sans">Close the nautilus windows,
that's all.<br>
</font></li>
</ul>
<font face="Liberation Sans">After that you will need to find a
portmon serial log and right-click it, search for and option named
"Scripts" and after expanding it you will find the "Chirp portmon
clean log" option, select it and a file with the exact name and an
extension of .clean will appear on your folder, additionally the
Gedit text editor will pop up with the clean log on it.<br>
<br>
Compare the original and cleaned log and your will find that your
eyes/brain will thanks you for this. This also works with several
files at once; as always use it, share it, improve it, it's GNU
GPL 3.0<br>
<br>
[The long name is because I have a lot of scripts in my script
folder and I group them by the main related activity, of course
you can change the name of it once it's recognized by the system]<br>
