4.1.2 Testing installation
To test if the installation was successful, find your command line prompt in a terminal window. Type in the window:
fishrot.py -I 45 >delete.me; eqarea.py -f delete.me
followed by a carriage return or enter key. You should have something that looks similar to this (details will vary!):
The command fishrot.py creates a fisher distribution with a mean inclination of 45o and saves it in a file called delete.me. eqarea.py makes a plot of it. The tag pmagpy-2.09 in the lower left hand corner is the PmagPy version number that created the plot. You can save the plot in a variety of formats by clicking on the disk icon on the tool bar of the picture (right hand one). Specifying the format name by using the desired suffix in the file name. For example, a file name of myplot.svg would save as an svg format, myplot.png in a png format, etc. The default file format is .svg. Complete details of these and other programs are available through the PmagPy home page.
