mkscript problem
Guest wrote on Nov 21, 2005
Hi,
I am currently trying to put together what was originally meant to be a
simple command line script using mkscript and seem to have stumbled onto a
bug. It appears that IRAF is literally ignoring two lines in the script
for no apparent reason. It literally skips over those lines and continutes
to the next. If I put a slush line in (I used "blah") it works, which
leads me to think that the issue is that the lines are ignored rather than
there being a syntax issues with the commands. The script (which is a work
in progress) and the appropriate files needed to run it (ie the image
file, parameter files and a psf file) are located at
http://www.astro.queensu.ca/~mruiters/pub/
and are the only files there. The add18p2B.cl file is the script in
question. As you will see, there is no corresponding issue with the
p2mask.cl file, which was also produced largely using mkscript. The script
has been tested on two different machines running two different linux
installations (Fedora Core 2 and Redhat 9) and the same issue was found in
both cases. It is consistent regardless of how many times the script is
run (ie it's not a one time issue).
Anyway insight you may have into what is causing this problem would be
great.
Thanks!
