Automatically Processing SQL Server Trace Files

Lately I've been working on a small utility to process SQL Server trace files. If you use scripted traces to generate trace files there's no automated way to get these into a SQL Server table. I wrote a little .NET utility to do it for me that I'm calling ClearTrace. You can download it here. Currently it's a command line utility and VERY beta. In the future I plan to rewrite it as a service and add better error checking.
