                             TIFITS\ Command Language Summary

                 ALMATI-FITS to/from native CLIC format converter

    READ            : Read FITS file(s) and write converted output 
                      on ipb file
    WRITE           : Convert current index from ipb into FITS file(s)

TIFITS\READ name

Convert the input ALMA-TI Fits file to native CLIC
format. Observations are read in sequence from the Fits file and are
written in the CLIC output file (should have been opened and/or
initialized by command FILE OUT).

`name' is the name of the input file to which `.fits' is  added  if  not
present.

TIFITS\WRITE [file] [/DATA] [/NOCAL] [/HOLO] [/ANTENNA] [/TELESCOPE]

Write  data  into a new Fits file in ALMATI Fits format. All data in the
current index (initialized by the last command FIND) is converted.  This
command  and  many of the options were actually designed to prepare test
data.

`file'
      
is the output file name. The extension ".fits" is added if not
present.  The file will be split if more than 950 table extensions are
needed; this is to enable using the CFITSIO library and optimize file
reading performance.  In that case the fits files are named
`file'-01.fits, `file'-02.fits, ...

/DATA
      
forces the writing of binary table extensions (ALMATI-CORRDATA,
ALMATI-AUTODATA, ALMATI-HOLODATA).  Otherwise only ALMATI-DATAPAR,
ALMATI-CALIBR, ALMATI-GAIN, ALMATI-PASSBAND are written.

/NOCAL
      
disables the writing of atmospheric calibration data (e.g. system
temperatures, water contents,...).

/HOLO ant ref
      
generates test ALMATI-HOLODATA tables, based on actual holography data
from Plateau de Bure. `ant' is the antenna that was scanned and `ref'
points to the reference antenna (i.e. the data from the baseline from
`ref' to `ant' will be used).

/ANTENNA ant1 ant2 ant3 ... antn
      
selects a subset of antennas (subarray) which is only used.
