Recommend a program plot dat files in Linux ubuntu
Hi Guy,
To plot the DAT files in Ubuntu I recommend using gnuplot. Gnu plot allows graphs of functions and data.
Here an example of how plot a data file organized in columns separated by spaces:
gnuplot > plot "force.dat" using 1:2 title 'Column'.

As you can see Gnuplot is a command line program. But you can also use PlotDrop,
Which front ends to supports dropping of data files on GNOME and KDE. Or to use all the features you could use Octave gnuplot the counterpart of Matlab on Linux.Â
Â
Hope it help.
