Re: reading histogram contents

Hi,

After the line

       TFile *f = new TFile("histos4.root"); add this line

       TH1 *haccpt = (TH1*)f->Get("haccpt");

At the normal ROOT prompt, the histogram named "haccpt" is automatically read from the current directory. This is not the case when executing a script.
