[Nek5000-users] Restart w/o saving over existing fld files?

[nek5000-users at lists.mcs.anl.gov]

I typically use this 6-liner shell script to add an offset to my fld files.

for i in `ls $1.f*`
do
  basename=`echo $i | awk 'BEGIN { FS = ".f" } ; { print $1 }'`
  oldid=`echo $i | awk 'BEGIN { FS = ".f" } ; { print $2 }'`;
  mv $i `expr $oldid + $2 | xargs printf "$basename.f%04d\n"`
done

If you save the script as 'mvfld' and your fld files are {foo0.f0001, ...} just run 'mvfld foo 50'
to add an offset of 50 to your fld files.

hth,
Stefan
