contrib/tracelor.py (in trunk)

Hi there!
I suppose that you guys already know about the Cherokee tracing
facility; right? If you compile it with --enable-trace, you can use
the CHEROKEE_TRACE environment variable (or cherokee-tweak) to trace
what is going on inside the server.
By default the environment variable contains a list of comma separated
words, that point the server which parts and actions are interesting
for your trace. Besides, there are a few special cases:
- all: Activates all the trace points
- time: Prints the time at the beginning of the line
- thread: Prints the thread ID
And here is where contrib/tracelor.py comes into scene. It is a little
script that helps to read the tracing logs by colorizing the thread
references and highlighting the words passed through the command line.
For instance, the attached image is a capture of the output of:
CHEROKEE_TRACE=thread,all ./cherokee | ../contrib/tracelor.py iocache
