SYNOPSIS
xresponse-convert screenshot.png xresponse.log
DESCRIPTION
xresponse-convert is a small shell script that can be used to visualize xresponse logs into a more intuitive series of images. Based on the provided screenshot image and xresponse log, the script uses ImageMagick tools to create an image for each event in xresponse log with the corresponding area of the screen inverted to indicate where activity occurred.
See the end of the script (or the end of its output) for some hints how the resulting images can be viewed semi-automatically or assembled into an animation. The animations can for example be attached to bug reports about performance or redundant (battery wasting) activity when an application should be idle.

RESTRICTIONS
As only a single image is provided to the xresponse-convert, the tool can not display what kind of changes occurred in the areas that were updated.
