NAME

       framepoints - write x, y, and z projections to files

SYNOPSIS

       framepoints box-number particle filename-root

ALIASES

       frp

DESCRIPTION

       framepoints writes files that include the x, y, and z pro-
       jections for all particles of type particle  in  box  box-
       number.   This could be useful when making point plots for
       publication using a plotting  package  like  mongo.   Each
       particle  type and each projection is written into a sepa-
       rate file.  The filename is the  root  filename-root  with
       either dark, gas, or star appended to signify the particle
       type and then with either x, y, or z appended  to  signify
       the  projection.  For example, the file filename-rootdarkx
       would contain the positions of all the dark matter  parti-
       cles  in  box  box-number when viewed down the x-axis.  If
       the box box-number is not loaded an error is generated.

OPTIONS

   Particle
       The possible choices for particle are:

              all
                 Write files that include the dark, gas, and star
                 particles in box box-number.  This produces nine
                 files in all.

              dark
                 Write files that only include the dark particles
                 in box box-number.  This produces three files in
                 all.

              darkandgas
                 Write files that include the dark and gas parti-
                 cles in box box-number.  This produces six files
                 in all.

              darkandstar
                 Write files that include the dark and star  par-
                 ticles  in  box  box-number.   This produces six
                 files in all.

              gas
                 Write files that only include the gas  particles
                 in box box-number.  This produces three files in
                 all.

              gasandstar
                 Write files that include the gas and star parti-
                 cles in box box-number.  This produces six files
                 in all.

              star
                 Write files that only include the star particles
                 in box box-number.  This produces three files in
                 all.
