    I suggest you do: shm2vcd and get a VCD file (ASCII text file), then use a mini-parser for signals of interest. If you google, you may even find VCD parser online.

    You will need to use the simvisdbutil command.

    To export a VCD database from a SST2 database between 2 and 5 nanoseconds in time :
       % simvisdbutil input_SST2_DB_file_name -vcd -range 2:5ns
