I do not want to delete >. I do not want to create 2 files and passing each one to psxy separately.

Suppose I have 2 files

Code:
cat p1.dat
1 0.1
2 1.6
3 1.3
4 1.5

Code:
cat p2.dat

5 0.1
6 1.6
7 1.3
8 1.5

Then calling psxy in this way

Code:
psxy p1.dat ...
psxy p2.dat ...

As I do not want to end up with lot of files, I put the data in one file separating the data using >.

NAME
igawk - gawk with include files SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ... igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ... DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1). AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like @include getopt.awk in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path. OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports. EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk @include getopt.awk BEGIN { while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1) ... } EOF igawk -f test.awk SEE ALSO
