"Plots generally look good"...Yeah maybe with a little formatting as you
suggested. Actually xmgrace has an old look on my platform, a bit like
xleap. That's why I will go for gnuplot.
I had a bit of spare time, so I wrote a quick script:
#!/usr/bin/python
# coding: utf-8
help = """Plot.py
Script to plot (x, y) data from files
Usage:
plot.py <files>...
Options:
-h --help Display help
"""
from docopt import docopt
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.style.use('ggplot')
plt.style.use('seaborn-poster')
plt.tick_params(left='off', bottom='off', top='off', right='off')
arguments = docopt(help)
for arg in arguments['<files>']:
pts_x = []
pts_y = []
with open(arg, 'r') as f:
for line in f.readlines():
res = [float(value.strip()) for value in line.split(' ')
if value.strip() != '']
if res:
pts_x.append(res[0])
pts_y.append(res[1])
plt.plot(pts_x, pts_y, label=arg)
plt.legend()
plt.show()
Just to try docopt and the new version of matplotlib (which includes
styles). The graph formatting is clearly R-inspired (the devs of
matplotlib finally underestood...).
Usage:
./plot.py summary.EPTOT summary.ETOT
Result:
