Split a Multiblock JCAMP-DX File into Individual Files
Process a multiblock JCAMP-DX file into separate files, one for each data set.
splitMultiblockDX(file = NULL)
file |
Length one character giving the name of the multiblock file. |
A list is returned invisibly that has one DX data set per list element. Individual files
are written into the current directory, so you probably want to create a dedicated folder
for this task. File names are extracted from the
##TITLE= sample_name field and will be sample_name (more precisely,
the name will be whatever follows ##TITLE= on the line). If
sample names are duplicated the output files will be overwritten as the file
is processed (with a warning). In this case you should open the multiblock file in a plain text
editor and search for ##TITLE=, then edit the names to be unique before
running this function. Also, you should ensure that sample_name will
result in a valid file name on your operating system.
Individual data sets are written into the current directory, so you probably want to create a dedicated folder for this task.
