The idea came from David Watt's rtp (Real Time Plotter) program which accepted data from stdin and plotted data connect-the-dots style into an X window. Development on this project began when I failed to find a plot program like David's that showed time and frequency domain snapshots of complex signals. Gnuplot is close but is not very fast and requires some tricks to get working in real time. narp reads data from a named pipe (default 'stream') and plots processed snapshots of data either continuously or one at a time when the user wants. One or two channels of data may be processed simutaneously. One sample of data consists of two doubles (the first double representing the Inphase or Real part, the second the Quadrature or Imaginary part). Commands to change the marker, change the Y-axis adjustment, and change the center frequency can be sent to stdin. narp prints values related to the marker to stdout. narp can simply be thought of as a dual channel digital spectrum analyzer with limited functionality. narp was developed with Red Hat Linux Enterprise 5.5.
