xyConvert

xyConvert is a simple utility that converts files in formats supported by xylib into two- or three-column ASCII text file.

Output file can be read by (almost) any data analysis software as x,y points. The optional third column is for errors (standard deviations) of y.

Licence: GPL v2+

Installation

Linux, FreeBSD, etc.

xyconvert is distributed with fityk, but it requires wxWidgets (wxGTK) >= 2.9, so it's not included in any distros yet. To compile it, you need to install wxGTK, boost and xylib, download fityk source and do ./configure && cd src/wxgui/ && make xyconvert.

Windows

You can download EXE file and run it (no installation).

Mac OS X

not tested, but should work (after compiling with wxMac)

UI Design

User interface is designed primarily for converting many files. That is why only a directory and a new extension for the output file(s) can be given.

It is also designed with reusability in mind - the same code (which is very small, less than 1KLOC) is also used as Open File dialog in fityk.
