# Here's the magic to run Instruments from the command line. This is actually
# one big command that is broken out onto separate lines for readability by
# ending each one with the continuing "\".  Let's break down the parameters:
#
# -D - Takes a trace document that instruments will write the trace to
#
# -t - Takes an Instruments template with the UI Automation instrument in it.
#      Can have other instruments set up as well for performance or other monitoring
#      over the life of the script.
#
# .app - The path to the app bundle (compiled from the commands above)
#
# -e UIRESULTSPATH ... - Specify a directory to stash all the automation results
#
# -e UIASCRIPT ... - Specify the actual Javascript file to run
#
# Read the comments in the "unix_instruments" script for why we need it as a
# wrapper around the "instruments" command.
