[Difx-users] difx2mark4 : 1 letter codes, how to assign

[Chris.Phillips at csiro.au]

Hi Stuart

I agree with Walter. If you do implement this, my suggestion would be to keep the current hard coded values, but if a magic environment variable exists, assume it points to a file with values which should override the default. (Or some other similar scheme). You don’t want to break existing setups.

Cheers
Chris
