Hi,

I got the following error message:

gemini> gmos
ERROR: cannot open `doslit$doslittasks.cl' for reading
called as: `cl ()'

What should I do to run gmos and other tasks?

I dont' quite understand where this might be coming from since the DOSLIT tasks aren't used directly AFAIK. The doslittasks.cl script is read when the SPECRED package is loaded, and although some gemini tasks use specred I don't see where the package is loaded specifically. The GMOS package does load the IMRED package but not specred directly..

If you're doing this from PyRAF then there may be a problem in the package loading, either in the GEMINI code or in the way PyRAF handles it. Does using the regular CL work? Otherwise, try typing "imred" followed by "specred" to manually load the packages before loading the GMOS package. If that works you can add those packages to the end of your login.cl file so they're loaded automatically next time.
