Running the Tracer

emma65-tracer decodes a binary trace file — recorded via emma65 --trace-file <path> or the debugger’s Trace window — into a human-readable, disassembled instruction listing.

emma65-tracer [--output <path>] [--symbol-file <path>]... [--verbose] [<input>]
  • <input> — path to the trace file; reads from stdin if omitted
  • --output <path> — path to write decoded output; writes to stdout if omitted
  • --symbol-file <path> — a VICE-format label file to resolve addresses to symbol names; may be repeated to load labels from multiple files
  • --verbose — additionally print the bus reads and writes performed by each instruction
