Hi Anupam, I recently wrote a small python script to convert gromacs .xpm files to numbers. Maybe it'll be of some use to you:
Cheers, Tsjerk ### #!/usr/bin/env python import sys def unquote(s): return s[1+s.find('"'):s.rfind('"')] def uncomment(s): return s[2+s.find('/*'):s.rfind('*/')] def col(c): color = c.split('/*') value = unquote(color[1]) color = unquote(color[0]).split() sys.stderr.write("%s: %s %s %s\n"%(c.strip(),color[0], color[1], value)) return color[0], value # Open the xpm file for reading xpm = open(sys.argv[1]) # Read in lines until we fidn the start of the array meta = [xpm.readline()] while not meta[-1].startswith("static char *gromacs_xpm[]"): meta.append(xpm.readline()) # The next line will contain the dimensions of the array dim = xpm.readline() # There are four integers surrounded by quotes nx, ny, nc, nb = [int(i) for i in unquote(dim).split()] # The next dim[2] lines contain the color definitions # Each pixel is encoded by dim[3] bytes, and a comment # at the end of the line contains the corresponding value colors = dict([col(xpm.readline()) for i in range(nc)]) for i in xpm: if i.startswith("/*"): continue j = unquote(i) z = [colors[j[k:k+nb]] for k in range(0,nx,nb)] sys.stdout.write(" ".join(z)+"\n") ### On Mon, Oct 4, 2010 at 12:33 PM, Anupam Nath Jha <anu...@mbu.iisc.ernet.in> wrote: > > right.
