Some thoughts about TUI for viewing replays

[vt-alt]

These are thoughts from a new user who is interested in understanding workings of target binary instead of profiling it performance.

1. It would be useful if tui also supports replay mode. Because navigating replay log is hard (searching in less is good but seeing backtrace is very hard) and graph mode does not show everything that is interesting (task, modules, libnames, arguments). It maybe useful to see bird level view and then enter into interesting call trees interactively, for this tui would be ideal is it supports this mode.
2. There is no correspondence between tid and session.
3. uftrace tui --libname (nor graph) does not show libname like replay does.
4. It would also be useful if tui and graph allows to output tid,task,module in output fields.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I do agree that uftrace tui should have replay support. Let me find some time hopefully in 2024.
