.. highlight:: console .. _script_sdata: `sdata` ======= The `sdata` executable is a tool for reading and performing actions on *all* `sisl` file formats applicable. Essentially it performs operations dependent on the file that is being processed. If for instance the file contains any kind of `Geometry` it allows the same operations as `sgeom`. For a short help description of the possible uses do:: sdata --help which shows a help dependent on which kind of file ```` is. As the options for this utility depends on the input *file*, it is not completely documented. Files with `Geometry` --------------------- If a file contains a `Geometry` one gets *all* the options like `sgeom`. I.e. `sdata` is a generic form of the `sgeom` script. Files with `Grid` ----------------- If the file contains a `Grid` one gets *all* the options like `sgrid`. I.e. `sdata` is a generic form of the `sgrid` script. .. highlight:: python
