FIT AUXILLARY FILES

Name:
    FIT AUXILLARY FILES (SET)
Type:
    Set Subcommand
Purpose:
    Specify whether the FIT command will generate auxillary files.
Description:
    When a FIT command is entered, Dataplot will generate several files (for a linear fit: dpst1f.dat, dpst2f.dat, dpst3f.dat, dpst4f.dat, dpst5f.dat, for a nonlinear fit: dpst1f.dat, dpst2f.dat, dpst3f.dat).

    If this switch is set to OFF, then writing to these files is suppressed. Note that this command was primarily created for internal Dataplot use (i.e., several commands call the fit routines behind the scenes). However, it can be explicitly specified by the user.

Syntax:
    SET FIT AUXILLARY FILES <ON/OFF>

    If ON is specified, the auxillary files will be written. If OFF is specified, the auxillary files will not be written.

Examples:
    SET FIT AUXILLARY FILES ON
    SET FIT AUXILLARY FILES OFF
Default:
    The default is ON
Synonyms:
    NO and FALSE are synonyms for OFF. Note that any other arguments will be interpreted as ON.
Related Commands:
    FIT = Perform a linear or nonlinear fit.
