Scripting Introduction

The user can write Python scripts to add new features or functions to the TimingAnalyzer. The scripts are executed while the program is running.

Use any text editor to write the scripts and store them in the scripts directory. Select “Script” from the file menu, a dialog listing all the scripts is displayed. Choose the script and hit the “Execute” button. It's best to start the TimingAnalyzer from the command line when developing and testing scripts because debugging information is output to the command console.

The examples included with the program and are found in the scripts directory. In time, more examples scripts will be added and posted on this website. Any script can be converted to a built in function. Let me know if you have a script that you use a lot, I will convert to a built in function.
