+Here we have several test programs for use with the gr-trellis implementation.
+Documentation can be found in 
+http://gnuradio.utah.edu/svn/gnuradio/trunk/gr-trellis/doc/gr-trellis.html
+
+fsm_utils.py contains several useful functions.
+
+fsm_files is a directory with some FSM definitions
+
+If you just want to see what these programs do, run each of the following:
+
+./test_tcm.py  fsm_files/awgn1o2_4.fsm 6.0 1000
+./test_tcm1.py fsm_files/awgn1o2_4.fsm 6.0 1000
+./test_tcm2.py 6.0 1000
+./test_tcm_combined.py fsm_files/awgn1o2_4.fsm 6.0 1000
+./test_tcm_parallel.py fsm_files/awgn1o2_4.fsm 6.0 1000
+
+./test_sccc_hard.py  fsm_files/awgn1o2_4.fsm fsm_files/awgn2o3_4_msb.fsm 10.0 100
+./test_sccc_soft.py  fsm_files/awgn1o2_4.fsm fsm_files/awgn2o3_4_msb.fsm  8.0 100
+./test_sccc_turbo.py fsm_files/awgn1o2_4.fsm fsm_files/awgn2o3_4_msb.fsm  5.0 100
+
+./test_viterbi_equalization.py  12.0 100
+./test_viterbi_equalization1.py 12.0 100
+./test_turbo_equalization1.py fsm_files/awgn1o2_4.fsm 8.0 100
+./test_turbo_equalization2.py fsm_files/awgn1o2_4.fsm 8.0 100
+
+
+In your terminal you will see something like this:
+
+
+$ ./test_tcm.py fsm_files/awgn1o2_4.fsm 6.0 1000
+100 98 9.80e-01 102400 9 8.79e-05
+200 198 9.90e-01 204800 20 9.77e-05
+300 298 9.93e-01 307200 40 1.30e-04
+400 398 9.95e-01 409600 1074 2.62e-03
+500 498 9.96e-01 512000 1081 2.11e-03
+600 598 9.97e-01 614400 1090 1.77e-03
+700 698 9.97e-01 716800 1097 1.53e-03
+800 798 9.98e-01 819200 1107 1.35e-03
+900 898 9.98e-01 921600 1120 1.22e-03
+1000 998 9.98e-01 1024000 1129 1.10e-03
+1000 998 9.98e-01 1024000 1129 1.10e-03
+
+which gives you information about the:
+number of transmitted packets
+number of packets in error
+estimated packet error rate
+number of transmitted shorts (or symbols, or bits, depending on the specific program)
+number of shorts (or symbols, or bits) in error
+estimated short (or symbol, or bit) error rate 
+
+for instance, the final number 1.10e-03 is the error rate estimate by sending 1000 
+packets of 1024 shorts each, using an 1/2 4-state convolutional code 
+and QPSK modulation through an AWGN with Es/N0 = 6.0 dB
