BDFLIST:  Stand-alone script to list contents of EVLA ASDM data
----------------------------------------------------------------
BDFLIST
Type: Stand-alone service program

Use:  BDFLIST is a script that will read an EVLA ASDM/BDF format data
      area and list its contents in a log file and on your terminal.
      It does this by invoking a task in the obit software package
      written by Bill Cotton.  That package must be available on your
      system and the script ObitTalk must be in your path.  If you do
      not have obit, it may be obtained from www.nrao.edu and should
      install fairly easily.

      BDFLIST is a script that is run at the command line (i.e.,
      outside of AIPS).  It will ask you a few essential questions.
      They are:

      1. "BDF dir-path :"
            Give the full path name to the directory containing the
            ASDM and BDF data.  These data may be obtained from the
            NRAO archive.
      2. "AIPS usrnumb :"
            Give the AIPS user number you wish to use for these data.
            This is required for some reason.

       BDFLIST will list the contents of your ASDM area.  This will
       allow you to see what is there and to determine the
       "configuration number" which you need to give to BDF2AIPS in
       order to translate your ASDM/BDF format EVLA data into AIPS.
       Each configuration is fully described and then all scans in the
       data set are listed giving scan number, source name, time
       range, configuration number, and intent.

       BDFLIST will write a log file and a run file in your /tmp area
       with the time included in the name.  This file is echoed to the
       screen as BDFLIST finishes and will remain in /tmp until it is
       automatically deleted by the operating system.
