your system and its executable "gnuplot" in your path.
To use any of the scripts which load the dump module to read LAMMPS
dump files, you must have the Python package Numeric installed in your
Python. See http://numeric.scipy.org.
dump files, you must have the Python package NumPy installed in your
Python. See https://www.numpy.org and https://www.scipy.org/scipylib/download.html
Note that the Pizza.py modules use the older (but still popular)
Numeric package, not the newer numarray package.
If Numeric is already installed in your Python, you should be able to
type the following without getting an error:
>>> import Numeric
Numeric can be downloaded from SourceForge at this WWW site:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1369&package_id=1351
As of July 2007, Version 24.2 was fine. Once unpacked, you can type
the following from the Numeric directory to install it in your Python.
sudo python setup.py install
On my Linux box, when Numeric installed itself under the Python lib in
/usr/local, it did not set all file permsissions correctly to allow a
user to import it. So I also needed to do this:
sudo chmod -R 755 /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/Numeric
