- Data format
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
- Data files produced by kaos start with a header containing
- information about the parameters of a given dynamical system and
- the graphic interface. Legitimate kaos data should always start the
- line with "%%T". All header lines should start with the key string
- \%T. Then follow the captions of all variables and their values
- defined in each line. Note that all captions of variables in the
- header lines should not have white spaces between them and that the
- values of variables are separated from these captions by white space.
- If the save option "Window Environment Only" is chosen to save the
- data, the data file will contain only a header.
-
- The main data are saved in a multi-column format with each line
- representing a data point. Each line starts with a key string "%XC".
- An integer key which is concatenated to "%XC" without a space denotes
- the value of the composite information of the colormap and the symbol
- type. For the phase space box data, the columns after the first
- column denote the components of the coordinates of the point. These
- coordinates are written in double precision. Lines of a typical data
- file (2-d) may look like
