Help with Reading and Plotting .pl4 Files Using Dislin in Python

[Abreha Asgedom]

Dear Dislin Team,

I have a .pl4 file generated from ATP-EMTP software that I would like to analyze and plot using Dislin. Since Dislin is a powerful tool for plotting, I would like to take advantage of its features.
I have successfully installed Dislin on Ubuntu and configured it with Python. However, I am not sure which classes or functions in Dislin can help me read and plot a .pl4 file.
I would appreciate any guidance or suggestions you could provide.

Thank you very much for your support.

Best regards,
Abraham

Dear Abraham,

sorry, there is no way for reading .pl4 files with Dislin. These files seem to be very special. I could not find

any documentation of the file format. To use .pl4 files with Dislin you have to extract the data from the files,

but I don't know how to do it.

With best regards,

Helmut

Abraham,

See this: https://filext.com/file-extension/PL4

it states that you need access to the software used to create the file to be able to read it as apparently there's no documentation (public) describing it.

Regards,

Ian

Thanks Helmut, Ian and all for your active responses. In windows PlotXY can plot .pl4 file;  in Linux, I will try the one you suggested (readPL4) and plot it with dislin after reading/parsing.
