Hi David,
.tp files are not included in ROOT. But as you said they seem to be very simple ASCII files. I don't think you even need a class to translate a .tp file in a list of TGraph(s). You can write a simple macro file (.C) which reads the .tp file and creates the corresponding TGraph(s). Later on, depending on users requests and the completeness of your prototype, we may consider to include it in the ROOT distribution.
Cheers, Olivier

Hi, thank you, Olivier, for the reply. TopDrawer (or just top) is an old application that makes graphs. The .tp files are just plain text. This text includes the description of a graph and the data itself. The attached file is one example, which contains 2 plots. The format is simple, I figure out that one could write a class for getting that information and translate into ROOT format, but as I'm begining with this technology, I don't know if .tp format is already included in ROOT...
