Hi all.

I'm either an idiot or something isn't working, or both. I'm trying to set up plotting with gnuplot of the various fields created with OpenFOAM, however, I don't seem to see a straightforward way of doing this. When I try to alter the output format to something other than raw, (like gnuplot, but I just tried xmgr), nothing gets output except the raw format. So, nothing changes.

So, is there some easy way of outputting things to a gnuplot-friendly output, or will I be left with hand altering the input files. What files will I need to accomplish this and does anyone have any suggestions?

While I love paraview and all, I've come to appreciate the very small file size associated with gnuplot created graphics and the ease with which I can put them in my latex docs. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Mike
