Hi,
Just wanting to know if the Filepile weewx extension can accept input from multiple files?
I assume the answer is "no", but was just wanting to confirm it.
Thanks
David

Hello,   
I would not be so categorical. Depends on your problem. 
Suppose that you have 3 files A, B and C with data for filepile.  You could concatenate them into filepile.txt which would be seen by weewx as one file.
Under unix (linux etc)   :  cat A B C > filepile.txt
You could also build  filepile.txt  in 3 steps.  Assume 3 procedure p, q and r producing the 3 sets of data.
Then, assuming that filepile.txt is empty,    p >> filepile.txt    q >> filepile.txt    and  r >> filepile.txt   will produce the single filepile.txt with all your data.

Hope this can help you to solve your problem.    Sheers,     Paul
