Unless a result location is specified on the command line, each argument is
processed and stored in the X register which is subsequently
overwritten by the result of the next argument on the same command line
or by the next command. Thus, to save the results
for later use, one
must direct the output for each argument into a subdirectory.
One specifies a result location on the command line with the "=" punctuation.
The number of results that actually get written into the specified
location depend upon the functions on the command line. For
1 
1 and n n functions, a result is stored for
each argument.
For example, the command
S5> s10 = 2001 to 2050 baseline line plot
will remove a baseline and plot each scan between 2001 and 2050 in s5 and store
these processed scans in the subdirectory s10 as scans 2001 to 2050.
If the user wished to store results in the same location as the arguments,
then a blank result field is specified,
S5> = 2001 to 2050 baseline line plot
or,
S5> = s5 baseline line plot
to process and store all scans in s5 in their original locations.
Finally, to explicitly store the X register into
a subdirectory , simply type the location followed by an ='s sign
S5> s10 =
This can be convenient if one is doing many operations on one scan within
several command lines and then wishes to store the results of this
processing.
