interfaces: they have now been rewritten with better argument
parsing, saner defaults, and they come with man pages.
- genltl: generate LTL formulas from scallable patterns
This offers 20 patterns so far.
- randltl: generate random LTL/PSL formulas
- ltlfilt: filter lists of formulas according to several criteria
(e.g., match only safety formulas that are larger than
some given size). Besides being used as a "grep" tool
for formulas, this can also be used to convert
files of formulas between different syntaxes, apply
some simplifications, check whether to formulas are
equivalent, ...
- ltl2tgba translate LTL/PSL formulas into Büchi automata. A
fondamental change to the interface is that you may
now specify the goal of the translation: do you
you favor deterministic or smaller automata?

- ltlcheck: A tool to find bugs in translators from LTL/PSL to
Büchi automata. This is essentially a Spot-based
reimplementation of LBTT that supports PSL in addition
to LTL, and that can output more statistics.
These binaries are built in the src/bin/ directory. The former
test versions of genltl and randltl have been removed from the

A discussion of these automata, part of Ala Eddine BEN SALEM's
PhD work, should appear in a future edition of ToPNoC.
The web-based interface can build and display these testing
automata.
PhD work, should appear in ToPNoC VI (LNCS 7400). The web-based
interface and the aformentioned ltl2tgta tool, can be used
to build testing automata.

the Direct Simulation introduced in 0.9). A function called
