This small Tcl/Tk application shows the contents of standard NSCL buffers. The source can either be a front-end computer (online source) or an .evt file created by the data acquisition (file source). The type of buffer displayed can be selected using radio buttons.
For data buffers, each event is split according to the number of sub-events it contains, and the sub-event tag is decoded to show the device it corresponds to. The list of front-end tag assignments can be found here.
This application runs on all platforms where Tcl/Tk has been installed (Linux, Windows and OS X). Note however that the online source only runs on Linux so far since it uses spectcldaq as a relay.

Here is a screen snapshot of the application. Enjoy!
