aptest imname
imname
The name of the output test image. The actual test image is stored in fits
format in the APPHOT package test directory. If the image already exists
APTEST will exit with a warning message.
aplogfile =
The name of the output log file. By default all the text output is logged
in a file
called imname.log". If the log file already exists APTEST will
exit with a warning message.
applotfile =
The name of the output log file. By default all the plot output is logged in
a file called imname.plot". If the plot file already exists APTEST will
exit with a warning message.
APTEST is a simple script which exercises each of the tasks in the APPHOT package in turn. At startup APTEST reads a small fits image stored in the APPHOT test subdirectory and creates the image imname in the user's working directory. APTEST initializes the APPHOT package by returning all the parameters to their default state, runs each of the APPHOT tasks in non-interactive mode, spools the text output to the file aplogfile and spools the plot output from the RADPROF task to the plot metacode file applotfile.
1. Check to see that all the APPHOT tasks are functioning correctly.
