LOADBINARY(1)             TIPSY COMMANDS            LOADBINARY(1)

NAME

       loadstandard  - load in data from a binary file in machine
       independent format

SYNOPSIS

       loadstandard time [ x-center y-center z-center x-hwidth y-
       hwidth z-hwidth ]

DESCRIPTION

       loadstandard  loads in the data at time time from the cur-
       rently open binary file assuming it is in a machine  inde-
       pendent  format.   This  is  format  is defined by the XDR
       (external  data  representation  routines)  specified   by
       RFC1014.   If  more than one time is present in the binary
       file the time closest to time is used.  It is typical (and
       useful)  to have many sequential time outputs in one tipsy
       binary file. If no binary file is open an error is  gener-
       ated.   Binary  files  can  be opened using the openbinary
       command.  Standard binary files can be created  using  the
       totipstd  program  from the tipsy_tools package.  The data
       cannot be used until box 0  is  loaded  using  either  the
       loadall  or  setbox command.  If the arguments x-center y-
       center z-center x-hwidth y-hwidth z-hwidth are given, then
       a  subbox  centered  at x-center y-center z-center of half
       width x-hwidth y-hwidth z-hwidth is loaded.
