=head1 NAME
gpsreplay - replay GPS track logs for gpsdrive
=head1 SYNOPSIS
gpsreplay [track log file]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
I<gpsreplay> reads GPS track log files and plays them back for
I<gpsdrive>. This allows you to re-live a trip or examine it in
detail to answer questions like "where did I go?" or "how long was I
there?".
All speeds are graphed on a "ruler" of time so you can easily locate
stops and movement. Time can be set to any position in the leg by
dragging the slider with B<Button-1>. The complete list of keyboard
and mouse controls are listed below. Moving time beyond the end of a
leg moves to the next leg and redraws the time scale. When the trip
is complete, it starts over from the beginning, looping forever.
Two clocks are displayed above the time scale. These show the current
simulated GPS time in the I<LOCAL> and I<UTC> timezones.
=head1 ARGUMENTS
=over 8
=item B<track log file>
GPS track log file to initially load. If none is given, a built-in
default is used. B<File->>B<Open> can be used to open a new log file
at any time, replacing the current log. I<gpsreplay> understands
I<gpstrans -m>, I<garble> and I<gpsdrive> track log formats. Blank
lines are used to split a log into multiple legs. This may be done
automatically when you turn your GPS off and back on.
=back
The file is filtered according to the number next to the B<File> menu.
A value of 0 will do no filtering. Increased filtering can be used to
throw out some positional detail while smoothing out speed and
heading. The current file can be refiltered by adjusting this number
and selecting B<File->>B<Filter>.
=over 8
The B<integer part> of this number indicates the quickest update time
to accept. Points less than this many seconds since the last point
are ignored.
The B<fractional part> of this number indicates the minimum latitude
or logitude change distance to accept. Points less than this far from
the last point are ignored.
=back
=head1 CONTROLS
The time-line can be completely controlled by the keyboard and/or
mouse. All control bindings are listed here including some emacs and
vi-like key bindings. The Button-4 and Button-5 ones may be the most
convenient if you have a working wheel mouse.
=over 8
=item B<Button-4>, B<Left>, B<b>, B<h>
Move back in time one minute.
=item B<Button-5>, B<Right>, B<f>, B<l>
Move forward in time one minute.
=item B<Shift-Button-4>, B<Shift-Left>, B<Control-b>
Move back in time one second.
=item B<Shift-Button-5>, B<Shift-Right>, B<Control-f>
Move forward in time one second.
=item [B<E<lt>E<lt>>], B<Control-Button-4>, B<Control-Left>, B<less>, B<p>, B<k>
Move to the beginning of the previous leg or the beginning of the log.
The leg number is displayed below the time scale.
=item [B<E<gt>E<gt>>], B<Control-Button-5>, B<Control-Right>, B<greater>, B<n>, B<j>
Move to the beginning of the next leg. Wraps around to the first leg
after the last leg.
=item [B<E<lt>>], B<Alt-Button-4>, B<Alt-Left>, B<Down>, B<comma>
Slow down playback speed. The playback speed is displayed below the
time scale. The slowest speed is 1x (real time) and this is also the
initial default speed.
=item [B<E<gt>>], B<Alt-Button-5>, B<Alt-Right>, B<Up>, B<period>
Increase playback speed.
=item [B<Pause>], B<space>, B<Alt-p>
Pause automatic playback at the current point in time. Time can still
be moved manually while paused.
=item [B<Help>], B<Alt-h>, B<Control-h>
Open this documentation in a window.
=item B<Escape>, B<q>
Quit the program.
=back
=head1 FOOTER
The footer displays the following information on two lines below the
time scale.
=head2 INPUT
=over 2
=item *
Distance traveled in the current leg
=item *
Current leg number / total legs in the file
=item *
Current line segment / total segments in the leg
=item *
Real time duration of the current line segment
=item *
Log file input line of the last point passed
=back
=head2 OUTPUT
=over 2
=item *
Whether I<Listening> for or I<Connected> to I<gpsdrive> on the given
port number.
=item *
NMEA output being made available to I<gpsdrive>. Speed and heading
are calculated between two log points and assumed constant for the
segment. Position is updated linearly between the two points.
=back
=head1 BUGS
I<gpsreplay> assumes logged timestamps are UTC as recorded by the GPS.
But currently, I<gpsdrive> logs local computer time rather than GPS
time. This causes the clocks to be off. As a workaround, you can
consider the UTC clock to be local time and ignore the other one.
I consider this to be a bug in I<gpsdrive>. UTC is the only way to
log a time in an unambiguous way without specifying a timezone. Also,
GPS time is more precise than some computer time.
=head1 LIMITATIONS
Because of the above bug, it is not valid to re-save a replayed track
log from I<gpsdrive>. Even if you ignore the wrong timestamps, the
speeds will be wrong if the playback speed was anything other than 1x.
Re-saving a replay is a bad idea anyway because it loses detail.
Since I<gpsreplay> makes it possible to "teleport" rapidly from one
point to another, or even travel backward in time, you may need to
turn off B<Show Track> in I<gpsdrive>. In order for the track to look
right in I<gpsdrive>, you must not jump around on the time line or
playback at a speed too fast for the map scale.
I<gpsreplay> replaces I<gpsd> to appear like a real GPS to
I<gpsdrive>. Because of this, only one of the two can be running at
the same time. I<gpsreplay> must be started before I<gpsdrive>.
I<gpsreplay> can only support one I<gpsdrive> connection at a time.
