README.md

profold

This project is a terminal-based viewer for ghc .prof files. These files are the result of profiling with +RTS -p, and can easily be thousands of lines long. This makes it cumbersome to browse through them and find the interesting bits.

Since .prof files have a tree-like structure, an obvious improvement for viewing them is folding and unfolding parts of the tree, which is what profold allows you to do.

Usage

Open a file with profold:

$ profold file_to_open.prof

Arrow keys or vim-like keybindings to navigate. Tab to fold or unfold the current item.
