17DESCRIPTION
18-----------
19The `lttng view` command launches an external trace viewer to view the
20current trace of a tracing session.
21
22If 'SESSION' is omitted, the viewer is launched for the current tracing
7c1a4458 23session (see man:lttng-create(1) for more information

PP
24about the current tracing session). Otherwise, it is launched for the
25existing tracing session named 'SESSION'. `lttng list`
7c1a4458 26outputs all the existing tracing sessions (see man:lttng-list(1)).

28By default, the man:babeltrace2(1) trace viewer is launched. If it is
29not found on the system, the man:babeltrace(1) trace viewer is
30used.

31Another trace viewer command can be specified using the
32option:--viewer option.
33
34By default, the trace path of the chosen tracing session is given
35as the first positional argument to the trace viewer. This path can
36be overridden using the option:--trace-path option.
