The HEASARC and NuSTAR teams are greatly saddened by the sudden passing of Katja Pottschmidt. Most recently Katja was the lead scientist for the NuSTAR Guest Observer Facility (GOF), a role she had supported for many years. During her science career she worked on many other high energy astrophysics missions and played an integral role in advancing our knowledge of the universe. She was a wonderful colleague and friend and will be keenly missed by all who knew her.
lmod
load a package of local models
The lmod command loads a user model package. Further details are given in Appendix C.
| Syntax: | lmod | <name>[<directory>] |
|---|
As with initpackage, the <name> argument is the name of the model package being loaded, and the <directory> is its location, defaulting to the setting of LOCAL_MODEL_DIRECTORY given in the user's Xspec.init file.
lmod performs the following tasks:
- loads the library corresponding to the package named <name>
- reads the model description file supplied by the initpackage command for the library
- adds the new model components to the list of models recognized by the model command
Note that lmod requires that the user has write-access to <directory> (please see Appendix C for details).
This command is now also supported on Cygwin.
