Procedures:
   FXALIAS.......Least squares fit aliasing function and remove.  BDROP
                 is the lowest channel in the calibrator average.
Tasks:
   EXTAB.........Exports AIPS table data as tab-separated text.
                 Additional elements from BDROP are printed.
   FITAB.........Writes images / uv data w extensions to tape in FITS
                 format.  The first BDROP pieces are omitted.
   FIXAL.........Least squares fit aliasing function and remove.  BDROP
                 is the lowest channel in the calibrator average.
   PRTAB.........Prints any table-format extension file.  Additional
                 elements from BDROP are printed.
   SL2PL.........Task to convert a Slice File to a Plot File.
   SLFIT.........Task to fit gaussians to slice data.
   SQASH.........Task to collapse several planes in a cube into one plane
                 or row.  BDROP defines the axes over which to sum.
   UVHOL.........Prints holography data from a UV data base with
                 calibration.  BDROP is the minimum number of samples
                 to keep the pointing.
   VLBIN.........Task to read VLBI data from an NRAO/MPI MkII correlator.
                 BDROP channels at the start of each spectrum are
                 omitted.
