Brief Overview

• awe2sdds --- Converts a file in awe self-describing format[3] to SDDS.
• col2sdds --- Converts a file in column self-describing format[2] to SDDS.
• mpl2sdds --- Adds mpl[2] data files to a SDDS data set.
• sdds2mpl --- Extracts data columns or parameters from a SDDS data set and creates mpl data files. The program supports flexible filtering and matching operations on both tabular data and parameter data, definition of new parameters and columns in terms of existing ones, units conversions, customized creation of mpl plot labels, and other operations. Very similar to sddsprocess.
• sdds2stream --- Takes column or parameter data from a list of SDDS data sets and delivers it to the standard output as a stream of values.
• sddscollapse --- Collapses a data set into a single data table by deleting the tabular data and turning the parameters into columns.
• sddscombine --- Combines any number of data sets into a single data set by adding data from each successive data set to newly-created data set.
• sddscongen --- Creates a SDDS data set by evaluating a rpn expression over a defined 2 dimensional grid. This data set may be plotted using sddscontour.
• sddscontour --- Makes contour and color-map plots from a SDDS data set column, or from a rpn expression of the values in the columns of a data set. Supports FFT interpolation and filtering.
• sddsconvert --- Allows conversion of a data set between binary and ASCII, with optional deletion of columns and filtering of data.
• sddsprocess --- Operates on the data columns and parameters of an existing SDDS data set and creates a new data set. The program supports flexible filtering and matching operations on both tabular data and parameter data, definition of new parameters and columns in terms of existing ones, units conversions, scanning of string data to produce numeric data, composition of string data from other data types, and other operations. Very similar to sdds2mpl.
• sddsquery --- Prints a summary of the SDDS header for a data set. Also prints bare lists of names of defined entities, suitable to use with shell scripts that need to detect the existence of entities in the data set.
• sddssort --- Sorts the tabular data section of a data set by the values in named columns.
• sddsxref --- Creates a new data set by adding selected rows from one data set to another data set.
