Hello, I am afraid that I know the answer to the question: use python
But my problem is that I do not really know python. I just started and I can do some nice plots with matplotlib but I don't really know python. I am now running into a snag. I have different directories with different number of data files Directory 1 ---> data1.dat data2.dat data3.dat data4.dat data5.dat Directory 2 ---> data1.dat data2.dat data3.dat The number of files is huge, I do not want to run this one by one per hand. I am trying to do this with a shell script which actually prepares the data files but I do not know how to tell matplotlib from the shell script that the number of files is different and that it should use different colours for different files. I can explain this in much more detail if needed, but I wanted to hear a first impression. thanks, Pau ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network management toolset available today.
