Hi Eric,<br>
<br>
The idea is that we want to run JMFIT on a list of point-like sources in an image cube. We want to generate the list of sources dynamically, and call JMFIT to fit for the source parameters, writing the output to a text file for each source, parsing the output file and appending the fitted parameters to our source listing. Doing this from our own scripts will enable efficient bookkeeping, where we can keep track of the source and the fit at the same time. <br>
We have many hundreds of sources, and dealing with hundreds of little JMFIT ouput files is daunting. It would be easiest if we could, e.g. call JMFIT from the UNIX command line (or through a spawned AIPS shell), perform the fit, save the parameters, and absorb the results into our dynamically-executing code.<br>
<br>
We have so far been using MIRIAD, where this functionality is available and works very well. However, the AIPS routine JMFIT is best suited for our scientific purpose and we were wondering if dynamic execution in this fashion is possible in AIPS.<br>

We have someone that writes long data reduction scripts that invokes things both before and after the sequence of AIPS tasks. What his scripts do is write a text file with all needed commands and then execute that file. I am unfamiliar with all the gotchas but that<br>
text file would look something like<br>
<br>
aips notv pr=1<br>
<uuuu><br>
tget jmfit<br>
getn <n><br>
gmax=<p><br>
gpos=<x1,y1><br>
blc=<bx,by><br>
trc=<tx,ty><br>
go<br>
clrm<br>
print fmax(1),fpos(1,1),fpos(2,1),<u></u>fwidth(1,1),fwidth(2,1),<u></u>fwidth(3,1)<br>
print domax(1),dopos(1,1),dopos(2,1)<u></u>,dowidth(1,1),dowidth(2,1),<u></u>dowidth(3,1)<br>
<br>
outprint='<tttt'><br>
prtm<br>
clrm<br>
exit<br>
<br>
Where your script has to fill in all things in <>'s. This deletes the messages of JMFIT and prints the returned fit values and error bars to a file for parsing. Note that e-mail tool forced the break between print and domax which should not be there. There are other alternatives depending on which of JMFIT's outputs you want.<br>
<br>
The script $SYSUNIX/BDF2AIPS sort of does this (in an interactive way) to invoke ObitTalk and the BDFIn task inside it.<br><font color="#888888">
