Extract SQL history from 10046 trace files

Question

Hi all,
I need to extract the complete sql history from sql trace files to "debug" a client application.
I know I can read the raw trc file and rebuild the sql history looking for the PARSING / EXEC / FETCH entries.
However, this is a very long and boring manual task: do you know if there is some free tool to automate this task?
thanks
Andrea

I agree that the 10046 trace captures everything. If I do read the raw trc file I see the DML. The problem is that tkprof's record does not record the DML (maybe it thinks that some DML is recursive sql and it gets misleaded... I am not sure) so I am looking for an alternate tool to process 10046 trace files

Generate a trace of some dml:

oracle:orcl$ sqlplus /nolog
