HELP SECTION

MF2ST
Type: Task
Use:  MF2ST reads a model fit extension file produced by SAD
      containing component positions and makes an ST extension
      file.  Plot programs can then use this file to plot
      symbols at the indicated positions.
Adverbs:
  INNAME......Image name (name).       Standard defaults.
  INCLASS.....Image name (class).      Standard defaults.
  INSEQ.......Image name (seq. #).     0 => highest.
  INDISK......Disk unit #.             0 => any.
  INVERS......Version number of MF (model fit) file to be
              translated to the ST file.
  OUTVERS.....Version number of ST (star position) file to be
              created.   0 => highest+1.
  FLUX........Include only components having I flux >= FLUX.
  CTYPE.......(1) Star symbol number to use when plotting
              (2) Maximum number of MF components to include
                  0 => all
              (3,4) If CTYPE(4) > CTYPE(3), then use star
                  symbols 1 to CTYPE(1) over the component flux
                  range CTYPE(3) to CTYPE(4).  < CTYPE(3) use 1,
                  > CTYPE(4) use CTYPE(1).
              Types supported are
              1: Plus sign (default)   12: Five pointed star
