Introduction

The procedures in this directory are useful for accessing the binary disk tables used by STSDAS (Space Telescope Science Data Analysis System). The LaTeX file idl_stsdas.tex in the /text directory gives a detailed description of the IDL interface with STSDAS images and tables. This file is actually a copy of Chapter 10 of the Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph (GHRS) manual available via anonymous FTP.
