"""Verilator: Pretty print or diff nodes using `astsee`. A node can be:
* an pointer identifier,
* an address literal,
* a GDB value (like `$1`) that stores a dump previously done by the `jstash` command.
Apart from not taking input from a file, it works exactly like `verilator_astsee`:
* passing one node gives you a pretty print,
* passing two nodes gives you a diff,
* for more options see `astsee` readme/help.
For examples see internals.rst
