 do not take list of file but one file name only. In such cases, I want to
 unpack the x,y values in 1.dat,2.dat n.dat  and plot it at a stretch.
 What is the best way to do it.  Any suggestion would be highly helpful.

you may just run through the list sys.argv like

for filename in sys.argv:
plotlfile(filename, ...)

 2) How can i fix the default values, like first line should be black,
 second line in red , third in blue.

define your own favourite color-list like

my_colors = ['black', 'red', 'blue']

and afterwards circle through this like:

 for index, filename in enumerate(sys.argv):
plotlfile(filename, ..., color=my_colors[index])


regards Matthias

 Thanks
