Description

One thing krabs is missing is that it only processes real-time data. Would be great to add a feature where you can process log files (*.etl, etc.) as well to the API. I actually hacked this into my local copy of the code, so don't see any immediate issues where this would be difficult to implement.

Research direction

Start by tracing the current real-time ETW consumption API in this C++ repository and identify where input sources are selected. Compare that path with the requested *.etl log-file input; done means the API can process log files as well as real-time data.
