dmpkf
A utility to extract information from a KF file and make it
available in ASCII format.
dmpkf file {key1 .. keyn}
dmpkf prints the
sections and/or variables from the file file indicated
by key1 .. keyn on standard
output. If no sections and/or variables
are explicitly mentioned the complete file is printed.
The format to be used for key1 et cetera is:
Sec%Var
where Var
is the variable, which must exist in section Sec. If no Var is mentioned, the complete
section Sec is dumped.
By redirecting the result to another file you get an ASCII
version of file:
dmpkf file > ascii_result
The output contains for each printed variable:
- One line with the name of the section it belongs to;
- One line with the name of the variable itself;
- One line with three integers:
- The amount of space reserved for the variable on the file
(this aspect is relevant for
the software that handles kf files
and is mentioned here only for completeness);
- The amount of
data associated with the variable: for reals, integers, logicals:
the number of such elements; for strings: the number of characters;
- An integer code
for the data type of the variable: 1=integer, 2=real, 3=character, 4=logical;
- The values of the variable (on as many lines as necessary):
for scalar variables only one value,
for arrays as many values as the array contains.
