Command-Line Options

-Input
-input input_file

  The -input option reads a file in the format produced by the -Input option.
  It is recommended that input files be created with -Input and then
  modified, as the treatment of keywords in the file is rather stringent.
  Blank lines, and lines beginning with '#' are ignored.  The --event_pairs
  keyword must be the last such in the file, followed by the event table.
  The --event_pairs keyword cancels the effect of a previous -group keyword
  or -group option.  Other keywords and options may replace or mask values
  given in the event table; this is explained in the file produced by -Input.


Examples

  rabbit -g 0 -I > z          # build an input file, with --c 0
  more z                      # read the file
  rabbit -I -i z              # read and echo the file
  rabbit -I --c 1 -i z        # substitute a value, the file overrides
  rabbit -I -i z --c 1        # substitute a value, the command overrides
  rabbit -I --c 1 -i z --c 2  # substitute a value, the last applies


Example - Pentium Pro/II/III performance characterization

  Two input files for an exhaustive study of the Pentium Pro/II/III.

  rabbit -i in.sample foo
  rabbit -i in.sweep foo
