scan mock psrfits files returning summary info of what's in file headers.
similar to masfilesum()

Looks like i haven't been updating this for awhile..
13may11
mod
wasftochdr

26jul05 mod installation gen Some of the newer documentation caused the installation script to abort.
allmkdoc.pro had missing quotes around usrproj. The directory.
Tar file needed the ./doc directory.
18jul05 mod galftochdr
gal.h
galfa Added obs_name and object to the fits portion of the galfa header (b.b1.hf.obs_name, b.b1.hf.object). These were added to the fits header in early 2005??
11jul05 mod cormapinp galfa fixed bug in jdEncoder computation. For certain parts of the day it was off by 1 day. This was only in the galfa version.
11jul05 mod cormapinp galfa Added the /smo keyword to the galfa version of cormapinp(). It will smooth and then decimate the frequency channels by a factor of 7. The hdr locations are also updated.
01jul05 mod corsclcal Cor2 now also excepts pfcalonoff structs.
26jun05 new galmix galfa compute galfa lo freq's. Also see where rfi sits int the IF bands.
26jun05 new galmixpr galfa formatted print of the data returned by galmix()
25jun05 new pfcalonoff Cor2 process all the cal onoffs in a file.
24jun05 new galimgdisp galfa similar to corimgdisp. Has option to image wide band data.
24jun05 new cormapinp galfa input a galfa file and move to mapping (m) struct. You can then use cormapbc (cal scaling not yet there).
21jun05 mod lbwide cals data added new cal values for lbw after polb cal cable replaced on 01jun05
23may05 new corradecj Cor2 return interpolated ra/dec positions for a scan (interim cor).
23may05 new corhintrec Cor2 get record integration time.
11may05 mod corstokes Cor2 added support for was fits data
added bandpass correction options bpc=3 ,4  (mean,median of datascan).
11may05 mod wascheck Cor2 added keyword b=b so you can test a data buffer.
30apr05 mod wasftochdr was2 the az,za time stamp returned by idl in the header
b.b1.h.std.postmms and
b.b1.h.pnt.m.agcTmStamp 
was  wrong from 29jan05 thru 30apr05. The data in the fits file was ok.  Idl converted seconds to millisecs by : 
tmms=sec*.001 rather than sec*1000. 
It then converted to long so you lost most of the digits.
30apr05 mod corgetm Cor2 add check keyword to verify if records are compatible to store in 1 array.
23arp05 new warch_gettbl wapp get wapp pulsar hdr info from the archive.
23apr05 new wappdataarchive
wapp pulsar data archive  started.
22apr05 new wappgetfilist wapp get wapp file info structures from the files in filelist.
21apr05 mod yymmddjulday
dmtodayno
isleapyear
gen now works with arrays.
10apr05 mod wappmonimgp wapp added yymmdd keyword to limit  search to this ast date range.
10apr05 mod wappgetfiproj wapp added yymmdd keyword. Limits the search to this ast date range (needed for the alfa searches since so many files are begin generated).
07apr05 new robfit_poly gen robust polynomial fit.
22mar05 new corcmbsav Cor2 combine data from multiple save files. Used with pfposonoff, pfposonoffrfi.
22mar05 new pfposonoffrfi Cor2 process all of the on/off pairs in a file. Try to excise rfi before averaging records.
15mar05 mod pfposonoff Cor2 added skipscans keyword so you can skip some of the scans in a files.
28feb05 new 327 receiver gain curve ./data added 327 Mhz recevier gain curve..
26feb05 mod radectohaV
radecVtohaV
gen/pnt These routines had an option to pass in an array of ra/decs instead of a single value. In this case it would use the first ra/dec  for the entire array.
25feb05 mode juldaytolmst gen/pnt found a bug in the routine. it would occur if:
1. you had to call it with juldat as an array.
2. one of the juldats had to hit 12hrs (0 hrs utc).
3. The utc to ut1 correction had to be negative.
If these occured then the crossing midnite lmst would be off by 3min,56 secs of time(picked the wrong day).
This routine is used by ao_radecjtoazza, ao_azzatoradec_j, and alfabmpos.
13feb05 mod washdr was2 Previously washdr would only work on the most recent fits file version. It now works on all versions. It has been changed to use the goddard routine mrdfits. This routine is in the goddard  dir pro/fits. You need to be sure  and include this dir in your path if you use washdr (it may already be included in your path since pro/fit_bintable has always been required). 
13feb05 mod was.h
wasopen
wasftochdr
waspwr
waslist
sl_mkarchive
washdr
was2 cimafits V1.0 was installed 3feb05. These are the idl changes needed to process the data. The idl routines should work on all previous fits files. The units/definitions of the .hf portion of the hdr remain the same (they are now out of sync with the cimafits def.). The helio/geo centric projected velocity of the observer is now in h.pnt.r.heliovelproj/geovelproj.
29jan05 mod waslist was2 was printing out incorrect ra,dec positions. Was taking the positions from the 1st n records of the file rather than the first n scans.
23jan05 new pnthcoordsys gen return code for position coordinate system. This routine is in the file pnthquery.pro
22jan05 new radecdist gen/pnt compute great circle distance between 2 ra,dec pnts.
21jan05 new explain,agcdoc agc, doc included agc routines in explain.
21jan05 new agcplotsum agc plot a summary of the vertex agc (az,gr,ch) data
27dec04 mod modelCBH data/pnt updated cbh az,za model offsets. added (-.28,-3.82)
12dec04 mod wasget was2 added option to convert acf/xcf (pol data) to  stokes spectra.
12dec04 new coracftospcpol was2 routine to  compute spectra for pol data.  Called by wasget
07nov04 mod wasopen was2 When using polarization mode (stokes) the input_id in the fits header is begin set wrong. Put in a patch to get around it.  Only affects polarization mode.
30nov03 new a1963checkpattime
a1963cmptimes
a1963plottimes
a1963printtimes
usrproj Routines to compute timing  for  a1963 fixedaz patterns. They take the input for the source files.
30nov04 new usrproj usrproj added usrproj directory. Will include idl routines written for particular projects. It is now part of the ao idl distribution.
25nov04 mod fluxsrc
fluxsrc.dat
fluxsrcload
hdrGen.h
gen
gen
data
h
Data file fluxsrc.dat now includes B1950 positions for each source. Added keyword radec= to fluxsrc routine to return the positions. Had to alasomodify fluxsrcload,hdrGen.h .
24nov04 mod fisecmidhms3 gen added /nocolon keyword.
21nov04 mod cormapbc Cor2/cormap added keywords m3sections, m3type. These are to be used with the median bandpass correction (minus 3). They allow you to break a strip up into n sections and compute the median over each of these sections separately. m3type tells how to combine these sections to get the bandpass correctino.
20nov04 mod juldaytolmst gen/pnt the keyword obspos was being ignored. It always used the AO position. changed keyword to obspos_deg[2]. It is now being used. The units were changed from radians to degrees.
13nov04 mod wasftochdr was2 -Velocity keyword in fits file was switched from velocity to crval1v. Looks like the units changed from km/sec to m/sec. Fixed code to use the correct units. The change occured some time in oct04.
-fixed up b.b1.h.std to include hdr_,reclen,hdrlen, sec.  This was needed to make the fractional occurence of rfi to work with was data. The routines output the rms/mean spectra in ic. format.
12nov04 mod corposonoffrfi Cor2 if individual on,off recs returned, they were always coming back in correlator units. Changed so their units are determined by /sclcal,sclJy
12nov04 mod cormonall Cor2 Now supports was data (except for online monitoring). brdlist= keyword  will now also limit the number of boards in image.
12nov04 mod corimgdisp Cor2 Now same version for old/new cor data. brdlist= keyword added.
11nov04 mod corplot cor2 interim correlator and was data now using same version of corplot. m= keyword has been superceeded by the brdlist= keyword (it was too tough to figure out the bitmap when you had up to 8 boards). Each plot will have the board number in the upper left corner of each plot.
11nov04 mod waslist was2 it was reporting the wrong rfnum for alfa (should have been 17).
07nov04 new cormovie1d cor2 make a  movie of 1d spectra.
27oct04 mod was.h
wasftochdr
was2 added about 20 entries to the .hf portion of the header (fits info). modified wasftochdr to move the info over. The new things were recently added to the fits header (crval2a ..etc).
27oct04 new corhstate cor decode the status word in the cor hdr into a structure so you can see what is set. (works for interim cor data. wapp/was data does not load this state variable).
27cot04 mod corplot was2,cor the 20oct04 color mod broke psfile output for corplot. I fixed it today.
26oct04 mod arch_getalfaradec was2 typo  keyword procname. startf should have been smartf (thanks jagadheep)
22oct04 new explain gen,doc explain routine will list routine documentation in the idl window. Also provided a topics section that give 1 line summaries.
22oct04 mod arch_getalfaradec was2 It was aborting if plotit keyword was not supplied. I was not first checking for the existance of the keyword before acessing it.
21oct04 mod wasalfacmpradec
arch_getalfaradec
was2 was not interpolating correctly between encoder time and data sample time when ra crossed 0Hrs. Fixed by interpolating az,za rather than ra/dec (thanks to arun for the suggestion).  This also affected  arch_getalfaradec.
20oct04 mod modified most routines that used the plot command and color= keyword. gen,Cor2,was2
and many more
I got tired of the colors not coming out right on the linux true color displays. I went thru and modified the color= keyword to work correctly with pseudo color or true color in most routines.
11oct04 new allmkdoc gen routine to create all of the html doc files in the directory specified by aodefdir(/doc).
11oct04 mod aodefdir gen added /doc ,/url keywords to return directory/url  for local html documentation.
29sep04 new wappfilesizei wapp return file size info (bytes file, bytes data, samples in file) for a wapp pulsar datafile.
27sep04 mod was.h was2 b.hf.rate_cs was inadvertantly defined as float instead of string. Changed it back to string today.
23sep04 mod washdr
was.h
wasopen
was2 The fits header changed on 16sep04. Many new entries were added (mainly related to positions and alfa)and a few entries were removed (point_off_az/za, rate_time)
I did not modify b.hf (yet). the raJ/decJ  is still coming from the central beam (for all pixels of alfa).
06sep04 new arch_getalfaradec was2 search the was archive and return the alfa beam positions in ra/dec J2000 for a user specified set of scans.
06sep04 new wasalfacmpradec was2 compute alfabeam positions from  az,za and timestamp.
06sep04 mod corget,corinpscan, arch_getdata was2 added /hdronly keyword. Will return data structures with b.b1.h and b.b1.hf and without the data (b.b1.d).
05sep04 mod wasopen was2 put some more validity checks in so that wasopen would not abort (as often on fits files with incorrect header info .. eg out of order records).
27aug04 mod alfabmpos gen/pnt The offsets were being included backwards. The sign was flipped on 24aug04. This flipping also flipped the sign of the rotation angle (which was wrong). The rotation angle sign has been fixed. It should now agree with value input on the gui.
22aug04 mod arch_getdata was2 implemented for was data.
22aug04 mod arch_gettbl was2 archive now works for was data.  Some functionality has not yet been implemented (record type selection).
22aug04 new arch_openfile cor2 open a file given the archive arrays slar, slfilear, and an index into slar. Works for correlator and was files.
20aug04 mod wasget/corget was2 changed wasget to return the correct order of polA,polB, boards  independant of the order in the file. It was assuming a particular data order in the file (and this order was modified on 20aug04).
20aug04 mod waspwr/corpwr was2 waspwr (called via corpwr) was returning the total power in the wrong order (ordered by how it was stored in the fits file rather than brd1(pola,polb), brd2(polA,polb) etc.. This was not a problem in the was routines.
17aug04 mod alfabmpos gen/pnt had forgotten to  include rotangl=  parameter on  the function definition line.
11aug04 mod corget
corfrq
cor2 Both updated to use corhfipppedh()
11aug04 new corhflippedh cor2 replace routine corhflipped with corhflippedh. corhflipped was using the bit in the hdr that said if this spectrum was flipped or not. It was occasionally being set incorrectly for 1 ghz bandwidths (when lo was above 1500 but it was a low side lo,  or lo was below 1500 and it was being used as a hi side lo). The fix is to ignore the header bit and compute the flip from the rf, IF/mixers used, and the if2 filters.This impacted 2 projects in the last 3 years. Those people have been contacted with a list of the scans affected. People should probably redownload the code to get these fixes. 
10aug04 mod fitngauss
fitngaussnc
gen sigmacoef was being returned incorrectly.. sqrt extendened too far.
09aug04 mod wasftochdr was2 added h.pnt.r.raJcumRd, h.pnt.r.decJcumRd... Requested ra,dec J2000 backcomputed from az,za.
