Click For Summary
To direct output data to a different directory in Gnuplot, users can utilize relative paths, such as using ".." to navigate up one directory level. For instance, specifying "../output" will direct the output to the "output" folder located in the parent directory of the current working directory. Alternatively, users can provide the full directory path for the output location directly. This method allows for better organization by separating input and output data into different directories.

I have a simple question about Gnuplot: How do I send my output data to a different directory than my working (current) directory? I'd rather not have my input and output data in the same directory.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
".." means "go up a directory"

For example, if you are working in the directory "something/data/input", "../output" will refer to the directory "something/data/output".

Or you can just specify the full directory path to begin with.
 
Ha! I know this thread is old, but I didn't see your response until now. Thanks, Dunhausen!
