Sorry for a lazy question, can Dislin show plot in real time? I mean if I run a program, it continuously output pairs of (x,y) to a say, txt file, can Dislin plot (x,y) in real time from the txt file? Or do I have to wait until all the (x,y) has been generated, then use Dislin to plot them? By the way, the topic by @Beliavsky seems may of help, > [@Fortran Videos on YouTube](https://fortran-lang.discourse.group/t/fortran-videos-on-youtube/2231/6): > > Here are some recent Fortran-related videos.

Your question is a very valid question. I had the same question a few months ago. The answer is **Yes**. It shows the continuous plot during the evolution of the system. All plots are printed on the console by default and can be saved with HQ graphics at a run time too. If you have an example you may share here and I can try it. Else, you can join the google group of DISLIN [dislin-users@googlegroups.com](mailto:dislin-users@googlegroups.com). The author of the DISLIN library is very active and replies fast. Another way is to get a [support contract](https://www.dislin.de/support.html) and get direct help for all types of issues you are facing with plotting. ---
