How to parse PVD stream?

[WXGopher]

Currently, default recorded pvd files are in binary format.

I wonder if it can dump human-readable ascii data stream.

Or should we use PxFileBuf to parse the stream?

Thanks!

Although it might be too late, I've got an example of how to do that in here now - https://github.com/ishani/OpenPVD

If you examine the filter app you can see how to break it apart, or run filter on any PXD2 and it can produce a debug log of internal data structures. Still WIP.
