SXHMAKE

       Create a basic STSDAS header file from an IDL data array

       sxhmake, Data, Groups, Header

       Data = IDL data array of the same type, dimensions and
               size as are to be written to file.
       Groups = # of groups to be written.

       Header = String array containing ST header file.

       Call sxhmake to create a header file.  Then call sxopen to
       open output image, followed by sxwrite to write the data.
       If you do not plan to change the header created by sxhmake
       before calling sxopen, you might consider using sxmake which
       does both steps.
