DSPEC
dspec plots and lists archived spectra or the ASCII files
created by aspec. It works like pspec but starts in menu mode
before plotting and allows data to be listed instead of plotted.
Parameters are normally set using a menu which can be seen by typing
<space> in response to the "dspec?" prompt which appears when
you type dspec. The M command
selects whether the data will be plotted or listed, the D
command selects the data to access, and the N command selects
the data to be plotted. This program is pretty complex, but quite
versatile, though pspec is just as powerful for plotting from archive
files.
If your search path is set as described above, just type
dspec, and the following help message will appear on your terminal
and a parameter file, dspec.par, will be created in your current
working directory.
DSPEC plots or lists a binary spectrum archive file
or series of binary archive files. The files to be
plotted may be specified on the command line and the
switches below may be set.
sets reduced file number to plot (01000a)
-d sets archive root pathname (/ret)
-i sets instrument name (zmach)
-average sets averaging interval
-smooth sets smoothing interval
-sample sets sampling interval ( 1)
-o sets order of wavelength solution ( 7)
-w0 sets starting wavelength in Angstroms ( 0.0)
-ws sets wavelength span in Angstroms ( 0.0)
-nv(v) turns off(on) verbose mode
-np(p) turns off(on) plotting mode
-w(nw) turns on(off) wavelength mode
-nk(k) turns off(on) cursor after plot
