Changes Between Versions 7.3.8 and 7.4.0
This page lists the detailed changes made in all of the
processing scripts.
The script names are linked to a description of the
current version of each script
- subs/calsource - version 2.3 to 2.4
Updated xspec syntax from "xspec @command" to "xspec - command"
and modified command script to remove "iplot".
Also added code to work around an extractor bug in WMAPS.
Modified xspec fitting script to use a powerlaw with index 0.0
instead of "const" to model the continuum. Const is a
multiplicative model, though older versions of xspec
apparently allowed it ot be used as an additive model.
Changed xspec log parsing to accomodate new xspec version.
Now explicitly specify detector coordinates for xselect
- subs/fixthings - version 1.4 to 1.5
change executable path for gis3bitfix to the FTOOLS scripts
directory to accomodate FTOOLS 5.0
- subs/images - version 2.7 to 2.8
Changed "read/exp_map" to "read/expo" in ximage command file
to comply with the syntax used in XANADU 5.0. Also dropped the
explicit title. The title had been added in images 2.6. However
The problem which prompted that change has been fixed and
using an explicit lower title activates another bug which makes
ximage not read the exposure correctly.
- subs/lightcurves - version 2.0 to 2.1
Modified to use the lcurve FTOOL to plot light curves
instead of xronos, which no longer exists and a single
command driven entity.
Now explicitly specify detector coordinates for xselect.
- subs/screen - version 4.1 to 4.2
Now explicitly set coordinates to detector for xselect.
- subs/sourceevents - version 1.1 to 1.2
Now explicitly specify detector coordinates for xselect
- subs/spectra - version 3.1 to 3.2
Changed xspec syntax from "xspec @command" to "xspec - command"
and modified command syntax since iplot is no longer allowed.
Also added code to fix an extractor bug in WMAPS.
Now explicitly specify detector coordinates for xselect.
changed the exposure parameter in deadtime from "ONTIME" to
"EXPOSURE".
- util/setup_parfile - version 2.0 to 2.1
added a cludge to account for the new parfile location in
FTOOLS 5.0 and later
