.IX Title "XSIL2GRAPHICS 1"
.TH XSIL2GRAPHICS 1 "2007-09-18" "perl v5.8.6" "User Contributed Perl Documentation"
.SH "NAME"
xsil2graphics \- generate scripts to load xsil output data files
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
xsil2graphics [options] <xsil_file>
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
Utility program bundled with \fBxmds\fR, used to generate scripts that load
simulation output data into either matlab (http://www.mathworks.com), octave (http://www.octave.org) or
scilab (http://www.scilab.org), which are then used to manipulate the 
results further if necessary and then to present the results graphically.
.Sh "Matlab"
.IX Subsection "Matlab"
To generate a matlab m\-file, from the xsil file data_file.xsil use the command:
.PP
\&\fBbash$\fR xsil2graphics data_file.xsil
.PP
or
.PP
\&\fBbash$\fR xsil2graphics \-\-matlab data_file.xsil
.PP
Then at the matlab or octave command prompt:
.PP
>> data_file
.Sh "Scilab"
.IX Subsection "Scilab"
To generate a scilab script file, from the xsil file data_file.xsil use the command:
.PP
\&\fBbash$\fR xsil2graphics \-\-scilab data_file.xsil
.PP
Then at the scilab command prompt:
.PP
\&\-\-> exec('data_file.sci')
.SH "OPTIONS"
.IX Header "OPTIONS"
\&\fB\-m\fR, \fB\-\-matlab\fR generate matlab or octave m\-file script to load data from the xsil 
data file (the default option)
.PP
\&\fB\-s\fR, \fB\-scilab\fR generate scilab script file to load data from the xsil 
data file
.PP
\&\fB\-o\fR, \fB\-\-outfile <out_file\fR> specify an alternative output script filename to the default
which is the input xsil filename with the .xsil extension changed to either
\&.m for the matlab or octave m\-file or .sci for the scilab script file
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.IX Header "EXAMPLES"
\&\fBbash$\fR xsil2graphics nlse.xsil
.PP
Generates the output \fBnlse.m\fR to load the data into matlab or octave
.PP
\&\fBbash$\fR xsil2graphics \-m nlse.xsil
.PP
Also generates the output \fBnlse.m\fR but explicitly sets matlab to be the
output format
.PP
\&\fBbash$\fR xsil2graphics \-\-scilab nlse.xsil
.PP
Generates the output \fBnlse.sci\fR to load the data into scilab
.PP
\&\fBbash$\fR xsil2graphics \-\-outfile nlse_new.m nlse.xsil
.PP
Generates the output \fBnlse_new.m\fR to load the data into matlab or octave
