Mapping with the Tailored environnment

A standard session using the INPUT and GO macros would be the following

    INPUT                ! Get started once.
    LET NAME The_Object  ! Enter your basic UV table name.
    INPUT UV_MAP         ! Look at the UV_MAP input parameters, and if
    GO UV_MAP            ! all other INPUT parameters are OK, proceed.
    LET TYPE LMV         ! Specify file extension for MAP.
    LET FIRST 1          ! Look at spectral channels 1 to
    LET LAST 15          ! 15 of your map
    LET BEAM DIRTY       ! together with a dirty beam plot.
    GO MAP               !
    LET NITER 300        ! Estimate number of clean components from map.
    GO CLEAN             ! Clean your data cube.
    LET TYPE LMV-CLEAN   ! Now display the clean images,
    GO MAP               ! if OK, your data reduction is finished.
If not OK, you may have to go back, selecting different UV tapers, map cell size, weighting function, clean parameters, etc., to produce the best images. You may even have to flag some discrepant data, using for example the UV_CLIP task, or going back to CLIC.
