Functions

gen_local_parms

pro gen_local_parms, fname=fname, tag=tag

NAME:
     gen_local_parms

PURPOSE:
     generate a local parms copy and copy out all files in order to
     simulate the AOC on a different computer for analysis purposes

CALLING SEQUENCE:
     gen_local_parms,[fname=fname,tag=tag]

INPUT/OUTPUT:
     fname - Optional full path to params file (defaults to
             parms.txt in AOC config path).
     tag - Optional tag so you can create multiple copies.  If
           ommited, overwrites the default.

OPTIONAL OUTPUT:
     None.

EXAMPLES:

DEPENDENCIES:
     AOC disk must be cross-mounted (or a local copy must exist) for
     access to default parms file.

NOTES:
     This must be run in a session where $AOC_ROOT points at a
     valid AOC mount or copy.

simaoc

pro simaoc, tag=tag

NAME:
     simaoc

PURPOSE:
     Simulate the AOC on a local computer for analysis purposes

CALLING SEQUENCE:
     simaoc,[tag=tag]

INPUT/OUTPUT:
             tag - Optional tag specifying the parms set to use.  Otherwise
           defaults to 'default'.

OPTIONAL OUTPUT:
     None.

EXAMPLES:

DEPENDENCIES:
     A local parms copy must have previously been made using
     gen_local_parms

NOTES:
    This routine should be run at the very beginning of an IDL
    session that will be used to analyze AOC data remotely.  A local
    parms file must be in the simaoc path (see gen_local_parms for
    details).

    NB: This routine overwrites the $AOC_ROOT environment variable.
    If you rely on this for other things, beware.
