About RUI:

	RUI Records User Input. Specifically, RUI can log keystrokes and mouse 
	actions (movements and clicks) with microsecond precision.
	
	RUI requires Mac OS X 10.3 ("Panther") or later, and has been tested
	up to Mac OS X 10.4.2 ("Tiger").

Usage: 
	
	rui [-s "Subject Name"] [-p/-r] file

Flags:

	-s ["name"]		Specify subject name, in quotes [optional]
	-p				Play back from log file
	-r				Record to log file [default]
	file			Path to log file

	Note: Only one of -p or -r can be specified.

Example Usage:

	rui -s "Bill Stevenson" -r ~/Desktop/ruioutput.txt

RUI Commands:

	CTRL+R			start recording (-r) or playback (p)
	CTRL+S			stop recording

More Information:

	The most straightforward way to use RUI is to launch it from the 
	command-line (/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app) and then minimize or 
	hide the Terminal window. The RUI hotkeys will work from within any 
	application, and the timestamps are normalized to when recording starts.

Notes:

	Please consult http://acs.ist.psu.edu/projects/RUI for the latest 
	information on and versions of both RUI for Mac OS X and RUI for Windows.
