Originally posted by **tappanbr** September 17, 2023 Hello! Thank you for making AutoEis. When trying to use it, I was not able to find any documentation on how the imput.txt file should be formatted. It would be great if you could provide some detail on that. Is it simply a text file with three columns, one for freq, one for imag real impedance and one for imag impedance? When exporting EIS files from EC-lab, for example, headers are included in the text file, and I wasn't sure if these should be included or not. Thank you

We need to provide specific instructions on how the EIS data file should be formatted to be useable by AutoEIS.

On a related note: it might be a good idea to support popular data formats, so users can plug in the raw data they get from the EIS device directly into AutoEIS.

pyimpspec has implemented data parsers for many popular formats (BioLogic, Eco Chemie, Gamry, Ivium). We should update our docs to redirect users to that package for IO. I don't think we should maintain data parsers.
