Walker + and D. Pollney. +\item {\bf mergeCarpetIOScalar.pl} A perl script to remove duplicate datasets from file(s). +\end{itemize} + +The first script resides in CarpetIOASCII/src/utils and was meant primarily to convert 1D data, +since the CarpetIOScalar data format is easily readable also by ygraph. Anyway, this script converts +also scalar data files to the original 2-column ygraph format. +Usage: {\tt Carpet2ygraphCat.pl Inputfile}. + +The second script can be used to merge CarpetIOScalar output written before and after recovery. It +reads one or more files in CarpetIOScalar format and writes their contents to STDOUT, eliminating +duplicate datasets (all but the last occurance are discarded), which may be created when a run died +abruptly without checkpointing at the last output itaration and is recovered from a previous +checkpoint. +Usage: {\tt mergeCarpetIOScalar.pl list of files}. \\ +Example 1: {\tt mergeCarpetIOScalar.pl alp.norm1.asc > alp.norm1.asc.merged}.\\ +Example 2: {\tt mergeCarpetIOScalar.pl alp.norm1.asc.firstCHKPT alp.norm1.asc.secondCHKPT > alp.norm1.asc.merged}.\\ +This script was written by Thomas Radke. \begin{thebibliography}{9} |
