obspy.io.ascii.core._read_slist

_read_slist(filename, headonly=False, **kwargs)[source]

Reads a ASCII SLIST file and returns an ObsPy Stream object.

Warning

This function should NOT be called directly, it registers via the ObsPy read() function, call this instead.

Parameters:
  • filename (str) – ASCII file to be read.

  • headonly (bool, optional) – If set to True, read only the head. This is most useful for scanning available data in huge (temporary) data sets.

Return type:

Stream

Returns:

A ObsPy Stream object.

Example

>>> from obspy import read
>>> st = read('/path/to/slist.ascii')
