<h2>Saving and Printing Results
</h2>
<p>
You can save the data collected in a various formats
using <tt>File->Save</tt>.
A file dialog allows you to specify file name and location of the file to
be created. The extension determines the format. Default is a text file (<code>*.txt</code>). Her the data is written in a simple
self-explanatory format (table) preceded by a header that contains time
and date, source file, user comments (see below) and other useful
information. Alternatively you can store the data in form of a ROOT
macro (file extension <tt>.C</tt>) or as a cvs file (comma-separated values) that can be read by most spreadsheet applications such as Excel and Numbers (file extension <tt>.csv</tt>).</p>
<p>The <tt>File->Print</tt>
command allows you to send the results to a printer. The print-out contains essentially the
same information as when you save your result to file plus the scanned image itself.</p>
<p>You can add additional
comments to the file and the print out. <tt>Edit->Comment</tt> launches a simple input
dialog that allows to add a short comment, <em>e.g.</em> on the origin of the plot like
publication, journal, author etc.</p>
