| About **apitrace** |
| ================== |
| |
| **apitrace** consists of a set of tools to: |
| |
| * trace OpenGL, OpenGL ES, Direct3D, and DirectDraw APIs calls to a file; |
| |
| * replay OpenGL and OpenGL ES calls from a file; |
| |
| * inspect OpenGL state at any call while retracing; |
| |
| * visualize and edit trace files. |
| |

| TL;DR: Apitrace is still being maintained, but the maintainer has very little |
| time to work on it, so patches/issues/requests are addressed if/as time permits. |
