Description: Graphic Data File for HPs and Vaxs' X Versions          

EFIT can now write out a graphic data file PLTOUT.OUT by setting
ITEK=5.  This data file can then be processed on Vaxs with DISSPLA
using the post processor EFIT:PLOT to generate the usual EFIT
meta file 55MFIT.POP which can be viewed or ploted as usual
using
 
           EFIT:DISTEK    or EFIT:XTEK (X window VT100)
or
           @EFIT:PLOTQ31 etc.
 
For HP users, this provides a convenient way to obtain the
usual EFIT graphic output.  First run EFIT with ITEK set to 5.
Then run the post processor EFIT:PLOT on Vaxs with DISSPLA.
It is convenient to run this on an area common to both
Vaxs and HP.
 
To avoid getting a large graphic data file when running
multi-timeslices, set ITEK=(10 + number of plots desired
for the whole time interval).
 
The PLTOUT.OUT file is in ascii format and contains
information such as header, title, (X,Y) pairs, etc.
