... Standard Commands . ... TwistedActor.Actor is core code for writing an actor: an instrument control computer (ICC) or hub-based script that does something useful. This manual describes the standard commands and keywords that any actor based on TwistedActor.Actor will support. All actors based on TwistedActor typically support the following standard commands (plus additional device-specific commands documented in that actor's manual). ... Connect one or more devices (if not already connected). ...

. To append the standard output from a command to a file use two >> (greater than) symbols followed by the name of the file. If the file does not exist it is created. For example: cat part1 > chapt2 cat part2 >> chapt2 . This creates a file called chapt2 with the same contents as part1 . It then reads the contents of part2 and appends them to the file chapt2 . The file chapt2 now contains the data from part1 followed by the data from part2 .

The following spectra were obtained between 1997 and 1999; they are all flux calibrated and generally span the wavelength range 6000-10,000 A. Spectral types are on the Kirkpatrick et al system as defined in Kirkpatrick et al ApJS, 77, 417 (1991 - for M dwarfs) and Kirkpatrick et al ApJ 519, 802 (1999 - L dwarfs). While not all of these stars are primary spectral standards, they are all bright and should provide an adequate reference sequence. ... LHS 320 ,sdM2, red spectrum . ...

... Standard magnitudes can only be computed for the U, B and V filters and hence the only standard colours that can be calculated are U-B, B-V and U-V. An important point to note, is that these standard colours can be computed using the following instrumental colours - U-B, B-V, U-V, (UVW1-U), (UVW1-B), (UVW1-V), (UVW2-B) and (UVW2-V). ... The program loops through these colours and if the relevant instrumental magnitudes are present computes the standard magnitudes and standard colour. ...

Describes how XPA access points can be added to X Toolkit (Xt) programs. ... Thus, in order to add XPA access points to the standard Xt event loop, the following routine should be called before entering the loop: int XPAXtAddInput(XtAppContext app, XPA xpa) . The XPAAddAddInput() routine will add XPA access points to the Xt event loop by making calls to the standard XtAppAddInput() routine. ... If the xpa argument is NULL, then all active XPA access points are added to the loop. ...
