DLST (List the contents of the XYZ buffer)

The contents of the XYZ data buffer will be listed to screen. This output can be re-directed to a data file using a DOS re-direction. This command is most useful for de-bugging MAPPLOT control files that use the data buffer.

Command Syntax:

DLST lopt, lmod, lorder

Command Parameters:

lopt

List line label

0

Do not list line label

1

List line label

lmod

List every lmod point. The first and last point in the buffer are always listed. The default is 1, which lists every point.

lorder

Order of XYZ data

1

X, Y, Z ordering

-1

Y, X, Z ordering

Example
MDFF ml

DOPN mag,2

DXYZ

DWND z,,50000

DLST ,2

This example opens file MAG.XYZ and sets the second Z column (the fourth column in the file) as the Z data to be read by subsequent DXYZ commands. The DXYZ command reads the first line into the data buffer, DWND removes all data greater than 50,000 and DLST command lists every second point remaining in the buffer.

Assuming that this example is in a file name CLIP50.CON, the following command line would place listed output in a file named TEST.DAT (the plot file PLOT.PLT will be empty):

MAPPLOT clip50 plot > test.dat
