The Tracecc GUI provides a graphical interface to the tracecc program.
Choose the directory containing your sources first. After setting
the conversion options you are ready to run a conversion.
During a conversion all source files (*.ctr, *.cpt, *.mtr, *.jtr and *.jl)
are converted into the appropriate destination files (*.c, *.cpp, *.m and *.java).
In make mode the program inspects the modification timestamps and runs
a conversion only if necessary (if there is no up-to-date destination file
for a source file).
Type
java -jar /.../tracegui.jar
or
javaw -jar ...\tracegui.jar
to start the program.
On Linux/Unix systems you can use the script
tracecc-gui
