Hi,

Is there an easy way to plot *.dar files outside of FEFLOW, or export them in a plottable way?

Short of writing a script to convert the data tables into something amenable to plotting, that is.

One solution - apart from WRITING a script is USING a script: In C:\Program Files\DHI\2017\FEFLOW 7.1\tools there are two AWK scripts: dar2pow and dar2trp. They're pretty old though, so please test well before using in a production environment.

Indeed there are. 20 years old this year!

Is there a dummies guide to using AWK scripts in windows? (Or, would you mind quickly explaining how to use them please)

There are different options for this. I typically install cygwin (http://www.cygwin.com), which is kind of a Linux emulator for Windows, also containing awk. With this, you can start a bash shell window and do awk -f <script file> <dar file>  > <output file>. There is also an awk package directly for windows which probably uses a very similar syntax, but I've never personally applied it.

Sounds awkward.

Hey Jarrah,

I found the method noted in the below topic was a lot easier (i.e. exporting values from the charts). It exports the values into a format much easier to read with excel/python/etc.
