[ns] tutorial-simple wireless example..

Hi,

I guess when you executed the "wireless-mitf.tcl" file, there were two 
output files that were created. One is "wireless_mitf.tr" and  the other 
is "wireless_mitf.nam".  If you execute the second file using nam by 
this command: " nam wirless_mitf.nam & ", then you will see a visual 
animation of the two nodes passing packets among themselves.
But if you want to use the first trace file "wireless_mitf.tr", then you 
should transform a subset of the data available in that trace file into 
a comprehensible form and then try to plot it with xgraph. Some related 
help can be seen in "NS by example" (http://nile.wpi.edu/NS/), where 
they show how to analyze the .tr file using simple perl and awk 
commands. Hope this helps.

Best Regards,
Shrawan.
