HPLC data processing

Originally in .tcl, then re-implemented in JavaScript for easier use.

HPLC data processing

This will never be beautiful, or much to look at, but it's functional!  This bit of JavaScript takes in .txt files and extracts values needed for data analysis.  The 20-year HPLC system we use doesn't provide an easy way to extract the data, but scripting to the rescue!

I first wrote this as a .tcl script, but then students needed to install .tcl on their computers, and it was a support headache.  I reimplemented as a single html file with embedded JavaScript.  Some of our instrument computers are not networked, so a having the application as a single HTML file makes it easy to "sneakernet" the file wherever it needs to go.

You can see it at https://cathysarisky.github.io/process.html, although you'll need some data files (links below) to actually try it out.
