[Gate-users] Gate on Cluster

[Simon Stute]

Hi,

You can use ascii output if you are used to. The splitter will
automatically affect an index number on your output ascii files.
Then to merge the files, just concatenate them (using the command "cat" for
instance). Ascii files have no header or things like that.

Cheers,
Simon
