Thread: writing blackboard and header values to ascii

Hi Dylan,

It's been awhile since I used SAC, but a workaround for the header
values is to write to an ascii file using "write alpha test.txt",
then execute a unix command to grab from that new file header the
values you want and redirect them to another ascii file like this "sc
sed -n 2p test.txt | awk '{print $3}' > valued_data.txt && rm -rf
test.txt". A kludge, but this approach will work. One thing about
this though, you have to figure out how to escape SAC interpretation
of certain characters. I forget the escape sequence(s) required to
make that command work from within SAC. You could also however write
a shell script that essentially is this line, then call that shell
script with the sc command from within SAC instead, after the alpha
write. Good luck.

Hi All,

Is there any way to write a blackboard variable and/or a particular
header value (such as user0) to an ascii text file from within SAC?
I can't find anything close to this other than writebbf. I also
want header values so I need something else.
Thanks,

Dylan
