[ncl-talk] bifurcation of multiple files

[Rashed Mahmood]

Hi Geeta,
I think the error in your writing table line is because you wrote  (test)
which should be inside double quotes "test" for a string, unless you have
defined test as variable name somewhere before that line.

However, I am not sure if that would solve your issue of separating files.
The easiest solution is that you remove the write_table line and add the
following line:

                     system("cp "+flnm(II)+ "
*/mnt/c/work/raf_figs/new_data/*")

This would copy the files for which your if statement is true to an output
directory. You would need to change the output path in the above line shown
in red.

HTH,

Rashed
