after some more experimenting i realized what zenbird was saying the values do appear to be space delineated and are not as simple as a=b;
what i decyphered was this name=value;;;scale so the time variable looks like this time=1.123456;;;0.000000 and if you were using a "code" variable with whole numbers it would look like this code=200;;;0 and if you put them together it would look like this time=1.123456;;;0.000000 code=200;;;0 i saw it working and collecting data with the various datapoints and graphing the information. I hope someone else finds this information usefull because it was a pain to figure out the syntax with out documentation I left the office yesterday and it was running but then i came back today and it appeared to have stopped after i left the day before, possibly after i closed my ssh window to the machine that i was using to test the scripts functionality? I have done the chmod command and verified that it has executable permissions. It has worked at one point in time, just wondering if anyone has had similar problems and could share some advice. thanks ------------------------ A. G.
