4. Command Line Tools#
The Belle2 Software provides a number of command line tools for general use,
including tools to work with files, to help with debugging/testing or for
validation purposes. The general rule is that all tools which are intended to
be useful for most users should start with the name b2 followed by a usage
category, for example b2file for all tools for file handling. Sub
categories should be added using - signs, for example
b2file-metadata-show is a tool intended to show the metadata embedded into
files created by the Belle2 Software.
