You have found some subroutines - ZEINI and TABZE read/write the ZE 
table used by ZEMAN.  XGAUS and ZEMAN tasks are found in $YPGM which is 
$AIPS_ROOT/<ver>/Y/PGM.  They call a bunch of external subroutines such 
as ZEINI which are found in $APLSUB, $YSUB, and $APLGEN (and below). All 
these logicals are known if you do the $CDTST I recommended.

Note PROG XGAUS will show you where XGAUS is located.  You have read, I 
hope, the AIPS Memo I wrote on these:

AIPS Memo 118 (and 122 for absorption).  These are in 
$AIPS_ROOT/TEXT/PUBL as PostScript files.  Also from our web site
www.aips.nrao.edu
