READVECTOR(1) TIPSY COMMANDS READVECTOR(1)
NAME
readvector - read a vector
SYNOPSIS
readvector filename
DESCRIPTION
readvector reads in a three dimensional vector for each
particle from the file filename for use by commands like
viewmag and viewrad. Using the showvec command the vector
field can be displayed in plots.
The file filename must be an ascii file. The file should
be of the form:
ntotal
x_vector(i), i = 1 to ntotal
y_vector(i), i = 1 to ntotal
z_vector(i), i = 1 to ntotal
where ntotal is the total number of particles. Therefore,
the total file length is 3*ntotal+1 lines.
The readarray command is used to read in scalars.
