Introduction to Command Files

Introduction to Command Files

It is possible to record commands issued during a D3PLOT session to a file and replay these during the current or a subsequent session.

This is exactly equivalent to having two tape-recorders available: one to record commands and one to play them back. It is also possible to have both turned on at the same time so that commands being played back from an earlier session get recorded (and possibly edited) during the current session.

Note that Settings Files may offer a more convenient alternative to command files, if the aim is to generate a particular plot.
