The file is a FITS- or other binary-format file representing either image or UV data in binary form. Format: The name is usually given by specifying a logical device plus directory, followed by a colon, followed by the actual file name. In Unix, logicals are environment variables. The logical name must be set up before entering the AIPS program and is usually in upper case. Thus, for example: % setenv MYAREA ~joeuser for the C shell, and $ myarea=$HOME; export MYAREA for bourne, korn, and bash shells. Then in AIPS, INLIST = 'MYAREA:FITS.DAT' Note that the Unix-standard $ ahead of the logical is omitted. AIPS-standard logicals like FITS (often AIPS/FITS) are available also. Other forms are now acceptable as well: INLIST = 'FITS.DAT will find the file in the $FITS directory (when reading or writing FITS disk files) or in the directory local when you started AIPS. A full path name may also be given INLIST = '/home/primate2/egreisen/AIPS/N6503.fits if it fits in 48 characters. Note that the trailing quote mark is left off and this is the last command on the input line so that the case is preserved. Under UNIX, it is now possible to read and write tape files with other, cooperating computers. If the other computer is running the AIPS "deamon" task TPMON, then INFILE may also take the form ::: where is the name of the other computer, and is a name known to TPMON on that computer. This limitation probably requires you to use the $FITS or $RUNFIL or other widely known AIPS areas. (For real tape, the node name is given in the MOUNT command instead.) This option only applies to tapes (i.e. FITTP). Null value: ' ' Taken to mean no subsidiary file. This can be an error. For tapes, it means use a real tape drive given by INTAPE (which must already be MOUNTed). Tasks: BOXES........Adds Clean boxes to BOXFILE around sources from a list; INLIST gives the source list FACES........Makes images of catalog sources for initial calibration; INLIST gives the source list SETFC........Makes a BOXFILE for input to IMAGR; INLIST gives the list of possibly interfering sources ----------------------------------------------------------------
