Table column selector

This file contains procedures to expand a list of column names into an
array of column descriptors which match the list.  The list is a list
of column patterns separated by commas.  The column pattern is either
a column name, a file name containing a list of column names, or a
pattern using the usual IRAF pattern matching syntax. For example, the
string

	a[1-9], b, time*, @column.lis

would be expanded as the column names a1 through a9, b, any column
name beginning with "time", and all the column names in the file
column.lis.  If the column list is entirely whitespace, the array of
column descriptors will include all the columns in the table, as this
seems the most reasonable default. If the first non-white character is
the negation character (either ~ or !), the array of column descriptors
will include all columns not matched by the list. The negation character
only has this meaning at the beginning of the list.

Column names may also contain array sections having the same format
as image sections. The sections are surrounded by parentheses. For example

	spec(1:200:2) image(*,30) spec (20:*)

are valid array sections.
