The dustmite wiki[0] lists the following example script for use
to monitor the reduction progress:
#!/bin/sh
watch -cn 0.1 "zsh -c 'ls -al $1.reduced/**/*.d ; colordiff -ru
$1.reduced $1.test'"
This repeatedly compares the $1.reduced directory with a $1.test
directory. The dustmite run however doesn't seem to produce a
(stable) $1.test, only several $1.lookahead.* directories.
drwxr-xr-x 1 zorael zorael 362 apr 6 17:21 .
drwxr-xr-x 1 zorael zorael 24 apr 6 17:21
source.lookahead.7170
drwxr-xr-x 1 zorael zorael 24 apr 6 17:21
source.lookahead.7169
drwxr-xr-x 1 zorael zorael 24 apr 6 17:21 source
-rwxr-xr-x 1 zorael zorael 186 apr 6 10:23 tester
The command used was `dustmite -j2 --strip-comments source
/abs/path/to/tester`. I'm limiting the number of jobs to 2 so as
not to run out of memory. dmd is a bit unreasonable.
Why is there no .test directory? Changing the script to
$1.lookahead.* doesn't work as it passes (jobs+1) arguments to
colordiff, which only accepts 2. Is there any way to glob only
one .lookahead.* directory? Some other solution?
