Hi,
I've been having a little trouble with SAC cut command lately. Following is
an example script that I use to cut data files,

cut on
r 2006*
cut 75 300
cut off
w f1 f2 f3
r f1 f2 f3
w over

When I read these cut files in & plot them later, the "cut" doesn't come in
to effect. In fact I never could get the files to cut for some reason. It
keeps on plotting the original file instead of the cut file. xlim is much
more effective in this sense but you can't write files on to the disk with
that eh? any suggestions?

Thank you !

Januka.

    Hi Januka, just try

    SAC> cut 75 300
    SAC> r 2006*
    SAC> w f1 f2 f3
    SAC> q

    i.e, use the 'cut' command before reading in the files.
