# GMT-class GMT4 scripts and presentations for the GMT mini-course at Instituto Dom Luiz/ Universidade de Lisboa. Clone me to get the scripts and examples just use "git clone https://github.com/jconvers/GMT-class.git" If you already cloned this, to update your files: "git pull origin master" and then you are done. IF, you don't use git, you can always download the .zip file (look to your right --------> ) I made these scripts and examples for an introductory course to GMT scripts, so, this is not really an in-depth class by any means. It is designed to help a person getting started on bash scripting and GMT plots. All I want with this is save you some time when you try to learn GMT. For each class, I made some examples that should run. These are the basic examples. There are some examples, mainly when we go into grids that will not run simply because the files that it is using are too big to put here. for everything else, just try it. Having said that, I am also thiking about this as an aide for a person that is learning these sort of stuff. So I am interested that all the examples that should work are indeed working, and that theys are helpful of course :) So, please let me know if nothing works and its all going to hell. I will try to keep this updated and on par with the class. IF, by any chance you did not make part of this, just send me a message and I will do my best to get you to run these examples. Also, without me tying to replace the GMT help forum, I can add some examples if you want to try to do some weird plot of your choosing. Thank you!! -Jaime Convers IDL/FCUL 2015 Basic index for the folders/classes: Class 1: Be patient, we'll ge there: Introduction to Linux commands VIM: this is what I use everyday (optional) The first script, what every script should have Excercises :) Class 2: Almost there: The AWK, GAWK commands and how they help you in GMT.
