NAME
artsportagg - utility to aggregate port table objects in time domain

SYNOPSIS
artsportagg [-h hours] [-o] [-q] outfile infile(s)

DESCRIPTION
artsportagg is a utility that reads port table objects from ARTS files (infile(s)) and aggregates them in the time domain, placing the resulting port table object(s) into an output file (outfile).

OPTIONS

-h hours
    The -h hours option may be used to specify the period of aggregation, in hours. The hours argument accepts a decimal value to permit aggregation by fractional hour values. When the -h hours option is not used, artsportagg will write a single port table object for the entire time interval seen in infile(s) to outfile.

-o  By default, artsportagg appends to the output file, so you may accumlate aggregate port table objects in a single file over multiple invocations of artsportagg. You may override this behavior with the -o option. This will cause artsportagg to overwrite the output file instead of appending to it.

-q  By default, artsportagg prints a '.' for each port table object it reads and prints a '+' for each object it writes. You may suppress this behavior with the -q (quiet) option.

EXAMPLES

artsportagg -h 1.0 /tmp/portagg1hr.19980821 arts.19980821
