Hello,

I only use Ubuntu computers, and I can't test usb data processor for windows. So I download the binary file gqgmc for linux.

But I can't download the complete source directory, is it possible ? I can only get one file at once.

I want to record data in a history file with a bash or a python loop. Can I get Geiger-Muller count each second, or CPM each minute ?

./gqgmc runs and uses the return key, but I don't understand what I get with the ./gqgmc program. I copy/paste what I get at the end of this message.

Is there a bash-command ...gqgmc... that return current cpm (or current Sv/h or totalCount) in stdoutput.

The main loop will be:

While Continue :
wait 10 seconds
echo `date` : `...gqgmc...` >> logFile.txt

and plots become easy !

Many thanks for your help...
