Hi all,

Is it possible to print values defined in a probes function to the terminal?
I would like to monitor some values at certain location(s) using pyFoamPlotWatcher.py.

Thank you,
Chris

That's an interesting thought - just logging some location s. Could add it on https://develop.openfoam.com/Development/OpenFOAM-plus/ for discussion.

So, that means, it is not (yet) possible?

I've created a `probes` function, so I am able to monitor values at given locations. However, I have to switch with `foamMonitor` between the different probe files (which is, btw, not working properly on the U vector probes for me). I would find it very convenient, if I could just run one single command (e.g. `pyFoamPlotWatcher.py`) and monitor everything I want...

Is this possible?

Would it be an option to have a bash command running that reads every probes file and adds every new line to the job log file? Or does that mess up things, when several commands access the same file? (Sorry, I'm still new to linux/unix systems)
