Q: |
I have XGRAPH directives, such as titles, embedded in my data files. The Num-Utils get confused by these directives. Is there anything I can do? |
A: |
The Num-Utils will ignore anything prior to the Vector/Matrix identifier tag (ex. !<Type> Real Vector</type> ) So place the title directives above the tag-line, and both XGRAPH and the Num-Utils will happily co-exisit. |
Q: |
I use Gnu-Plot, which uses # instead of ! for comments. Can I use: #<Type> Real Vector</type> instead of: !<Type> Real Vector</tyoe> ? |
A: | Yes. The Num-Utils (and XGRAPH as well) except both # and ! as comment delimiters. |
Q: | When I attempt to use the "shift" utility, I seem to be getting another program. |
A: |
Unfortunately some Unix shells have a built-in
command called "shift" which overrides the entry
from your path. To overcome this, you must set an explicit alias for "shift". In csh or tcsh: alias shift /xxx/numutils/bin/shift In bash: alias shift=/xxx/numutils/bin/shift (Where xxx is your install path.) |
