Method Detail

findPathExec

public static java.lang.String findPathExec()

This method browses current path to search for a file. Typically this should be an executable, but it is impossible under Java to check if this file has the execution bit on. Apart from the user defined $PATH variable, common bin-directory places are searched.

Returns:

The path of the specified program. If it is not found, "gnuplot" is returned.

createTempFile

public static java.lang.String createTempFile(java.lang.String contents)
                                       throws java.io.IOException
