Hello,

Thank you very much for being spend your time to help me. I have try
all your suggestions. Here are what I got:

mriv209-01:~] bo% cd desktop
[mriv209-01:~/desktop] bo% ./namdplot TEMP pbr1.log
tcsh: ./namdplot: Command not found.

Then I check 'ls -la' and ' head -30 namdplot'. Here are what I got:

"YAXIS TICKLABEL PREC 0" \

Then I search 'awk':

[mriv209-01:~/desktop] bo% which awk
/usr/bin/awk
[mriv209-01:~/desktop] bo% which gawk
gawk: Command not found.
[mriv209-01:~/desktop] bo% which nawk
nawk: Command not found.
[mriv209-01:~/desktop] bo%

Could you please help me to figure out what is wrong here with
'namdplot' command?

Your advice have been very appreciated.

Bo
