[PATCH 4/6] scriptreplay: mark literal values in the man page in bold, not italic

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Also, mention which keys can be used to speed up, slow down, and pause
the replay.  Shorten the description of '-s' as it is deprecated.  And
improve the description of '-t': it does not override the _timingfile_
positional argument, but takes the place of it, makes it unneeded.

 If the third parameter or *--divisor* is specified, it is used as a speed-up multiplier. For example, a speed-up of 2 makes *scriptreplay* go twice as fast, and a speed-down of 0.1 makes it go ten times slower than the original session.
