NAME 

osiv_getvects - retrieves vectors from osiv data file

SYNOPSIS 

osiv_getvects -f frame_num [-o output_file] [-p format] file

DESCRIPTION 

osiv_getvects is a program for extracting the vectors from an osiv data file. If the file is "-", data will be read from stdin. However, since osiv_getvects requires random access to the file this is rarely useful. Similarly, if the output file is omitted or set to "-", data will be written to stdout.

OPTIONS 

-f - frame number
Frame number, as specified in the original osiv call.
-o - output file
This is a text file whose format is specified by the "-p" option.
-p - print format
osiv_getvects traverses through the window grid making a call to printf() for every vector. The x position is specified with `%x', the y position with `%y', the x displacement with `%u', and the y displacement with `%v'. The default is `%.0x, %.0y; %+.8u, %+.8v\n'.
