Re: batch mode, multiple output files?
Hi Savraj,
Yes, you can do this using the "ferret -gif" mode. This is
documented in the on-line users guide. Go to the index entry
"GIF image, -gif command line switch". The users guide is at
http://ferret.pmel.noaa.gov/Ferret/Documentation/Users_Guide/current/fer_html.htm
For example,
> ferret -gif
yes? use coads_climatology
yes? shade/l=1 sst
yes? frame/file=xyslice.gif ! save the plot in the first gif file
yes? shade/y=0 sst
yes? frame/file=xtslice.gif ! save the plot in a second gif file

Hi,
I'd like to know if it's possible to run ferret in batch mode to produce
multiple output files, without any connection to an X server.
The same question was posted by Pam McDowell on May 19th last year and
there was no reply in the mail archive.

Here's my current understanding of the batch option:
>ferret -batch < my.jnl
creates "metafile.plt" -- command "set mode metafile" does nothing/causes
crash
>ferret -batch myfile.ps < my.jnl
writes output directly to myfile.ps
Is there a way to make multiple output files?
Thanks,
Savraj S. Dhanjal
