In most uses, NFILES = 0 means to position the tape at the start of the current file, NFILES = n (n > 0) means position the tape just after n end-of-file marks from the present position, and NFILES = m (m < 0) means position the tape at the start of the m'th file preceding the current file. Null value: None Verbs: AVFILE........Moves tape forward or back to end-of-file marks. Procedures: READISK.......Reads images / uv data w extensions in FITS format into AIPS. NFILES is the first catalog number to use. VLBAARCH......Procedure to archive VLBA correlator data. NFILES is used for tape and for the job number of disk files. VLBALOAD......Loads VLBA data. VLBATECR......Calculate ionospheric delay and Faraday rotation corrections. NFILES is the numver of TEC data files. WRTDISK.......Writes images / uv data w extensions to disk in FITS format. NFILES is the first catalog number to use. Tasks: ATLOD.........Reads ATCA data in RPFITS dormat into AIPS. AVTP..........Positions tape to desired file. BAKLD.........Reads all files of a catalog entry from BAKTP tape. FILLM.........Reads VLA on-line/archive format uv data tapes (post Jan 88). FILLR.........Reads old VLA on-line-system tapes into AIPS. FITLD.........Reads FITS files to load images or UV (IDI or UVFITS) data to disk. IMLOD.........Reads tape or disk files to load images to disk. M3TAR.........Translate Haystack MKIII VLBI format "A" TAR's into AIPS. MK3IN.........Translate Haystack MKIII VLBI format "A" tapes into AIPS. PRTTP.........Prints contents of tapes and disk files, all supported formats. SLCOL.........Task to collate slice data and models. NFILES is the number of slice files to collate. TCOPY.........Tape to tape copy with some disk FITS support. TECOR.........Calculate ionospheric delay and Faraday rotation corrections. NFILES is the number of TEC data files. UVLOD.........Read export or FITS data from a tape or disk. ----------------------------------------------------------------
