gkiextract -- extract individual frames from a GKI metacode file


USAGE

gkiextract input frames


PARAMETERS

input

The metacode source file or files.

frames

List of frames to be extracted from each metacode file.

verify = no

Verify each frame before extraction?


DESCRIPTION

Task gkiextract will extract individual frames from a metacode file, writing a binary metacode output stream which can be piped to a kernel for plotting or redirected to produce a new metacode file. Parameter frames specifies a list of frames to be extracted from each input file. If verify = yes, a gkidir style line will be printed for each specified frame and the user will be queried whether or not to extract the frame.


EXAMPLES

1. Extract frames 1, 3 and 5 from metacode file "mc_file" and plot them on the device "vup":

cl> gkiextract mc_file 1,3,5 | stdplot dev=vup

2. Print a directory of the first 99 frames in "mc_file", extract those files requested by the user and write them to file "new_mc_file".

cl> gkiextract mc_file 1-99 ver+ > new_mc_file
