NAME
aregpars -- edit the region extraction parameters
.ih
USAGE
aregpars
.ih
PARAMETERS
.ls rcra = "00:00:00.0"
The right ascension / longitude of the center of the region to be extracted.
.le
.ls rcdec = "+00:00.00"
The declination / latitude of the center of the region to be extracted.
.le
.ls rrawidth = 10.0
The right ascension / longitude width in minutes of arc of the region to
be extracted.
.le
.ls rdecwidth = 10.0
The declination / latitude width in minutes of arc of the region to
be extracted.
.le
.ls rcsystem = ""
The input celestial coordinate system. This is the celestial coordinate system
of the region center. If the input celestial coordinate system is undefined it
defaults to the query celestial coordinate system. Popular options are
"icrs", "j2000.0", and "b1950.0". The full set of options can be examined
by typing "help ccsystems".
.le
.ls rcraunits = ""
The units of rcra. Permitted values are "hours", "degrees", and radians. If
rcraunits is undefined it defaults to the preferred units of the
input celestial coordinate system, e.g. hours for equatorial coordinate
system, degrees for ecliptic, galactic, and super-galactic coordinate
systems.
.le
.ls rcdecunits = ""
The units of rcdec. Permitted values are "degrees" and "radians". If rcdecunits
is undefined it defaults to the preferred units of the input celestial
coordinate system, e.g. degrees for all systems.
.le
.ih
DESCRIPTION
The region to extracted from the selected astrometric catalog or image survey
is defined by the aregpars parameters \fIrcra\fR, \fIrcdec\fR, \fIrcrawidth\fR,
and \fIrcdecwidth\fR.
\fIrcra\fR and \fIrcdec\fR are defined in the input celestial coordinate system
specified by \fIrcsystem\fR. If \fIrcsystem\fR is undefined it defaults to the
query celestial coordinate system defined by the qsystem query parameter in
the catalog configuration file.
\fIrcra\fR and \fIrcdec\fR are expressed in the units specified by
\fIrcraunits\fR, and \fIrcdecunits\fR. If undefined \fIrcraunits\fR and
\fIrcdecunits\fR are expressed in the preferred units of the input
celestial coordinate system, e.g. hours and degrees for equatorial coordinate
systems, and degrees and degrees for ecliptic, galactic,
and super-galactic coordinate systems.

EXAMPLES
1. List the region extraction parameters.
.nf
cl> lpar aregpars
.fi
2. Edit the region extraction parameters.
.nf
cl> aregpars
... edit the parameters in the usual way
... type :wq to quit and save the edits
.fi
3. Edit the region extraction parameters from the agetcat task.
.nf
cl> epar agetcat
... edit the agetcat parameters
... move to the aregpars parameter line and type :e
... edit the aregpar parameters
... type :wq to quit and save the aregpars edits
... continue editing the remaining agetcat parameters
... type :go to execute the task
.fi
4. Save the current aregpars parameter values in a text file called
areg1.par. Use the saved parameter set in the next call to the agetcat
task.
.nf
cl> epar aregpars
... edit some parameters in the usual way
... type :w areg1.par
... type :q to quit
cl> agetcat ... aregpars=areg1.par ...
.fi
