APPENDIX B - T/HIS Curve File Format
APPENDIX B - T/HIS CURVE FILE FORMAT
A curve file is a file of x, y values which can be read into T/HIS for plotting. It can be written by T/HIS or by another program, or created using a text editor.
The format is as flexible as possible to allow many types of data to be handled.
| Line 1 | : | Title |
| Line 2 | : | X axis label |
| Line 3 | : | Y axis label |
| Line 4 | : | Curve label |
| Line 5 | : | X, Y point 1 |
| Line 6 | : | X, Y point 2 |
| : | : | |
| Line n+4 | : | X, Y point n |
The X and Y values can be in any format as long as the two values are separated
by either a space or comma. Up to 500000 points can be input.
Several curves can be put in one file sequentially, separated by the word CONTINUE. The title and three label lines must be present for each curve.
A comment line may be included anywhere in the file by starting the line with a '$'.
Comment lines above the curve's title can contain styles and curve tags associated with the corresponding curve.
