| Hi Xuebin,
I understand my mistake now. I was using wrong symbol, actually ampersand '-sign and was getting
frame'l'.gif.~n~
Now I see this is different simbol, `-this one, it is below ~ on my keyboard.
Thank you, Sergei

Hi Sergei, Please try the following, REPEAT/L=1:120:12 (GO your_plotting_script; FRAME/file=frame`l`.gif;) It should output gif files with loop info added. Xuebin From: owner-ferret_users@xxxxxxxx [mailto:owner-ferret_users@xxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Sergei Maurits

Subject: [ferret_users] Naming (sorting) output frames in the loop REPEAT/L=... I output GIF files in the large loop with command REPEAT/L=1,120, 12. So far I failed to find syntax solution that would output my GIF-frames with L-count, like frame.001.gif, Naturally, in the standard output the frames are named according to the Ferret standards 1. Is there any way to name output with the current value of loop variable L in the GIF file name? 2. Are there some UNIX tools for the following transition first frame frame.gif ==> frame.0001.gif second frame frame.gif.~1~ ==> frame.0002.gif or something without leading zeros and dots (these are easy to insert) like first frame ==> frame.1.gif second frame ==> frame.2.gif Basically, I need something that counts frame not in a regular order and substitutes ~n~ in Ferret notation with the direct order frame number I am aware about Fsort utility, but I'd like to check first about other tools before I Dr. Sergei Maurits, HPC Specialist Arctic Region Supercomputing Center
