+NAME
+ridsmtn -- convert mountain format IDS data to IRAF images
+.ih
+USAGE
+ridsmtn ids_file iraf_file
+.ih
+PARAMETERS
+.ls ids_file
+The IDS data source.
+.le
+.ls iraf_file
+The IRAF file which will receive the data if the \fImake_image\fR parameter
+is set.  If multiple records are being read, the output
+filename is concatenated from this parameter and the IDS record number.
+IRAF images with these names would be created from IDS records 1, 2 and 3 if
+\fIiraf_file\fR = "ids" (and offset = 0; see below):  ids.0001, ids.0002, 
+ids.0003.
+.le
+.ls file_number = 1
+If \fIids_file\fR is a tape device, this parameter tells which tape file
+will be read.  In almost all cases, the IDS data will occupy the first
+and only file on the tape.
+.le
+.ls record_numbers = "1-9999"
+A string listing the IDS records to be read.  
+.le
+.ls reduced_data = yes
+A boolean parameter which indicates the data is mountain reduced if set
+to yes, and that the data is raw (unreduced) if set to no.
+.le
+.ls np1 = 0
+The starting pixel to extract in the image. If set to 0, the
+record header parameter NP1 will be used to determine the
+starting pixel.
+This and the following parameter are in effect only when reduced_data
+is set to no. If reduced_data=yes, then the entire spectrum (1024 points)
+is copied.
+.le
+.ls np2 = 0
+The ending pixel to extract. If set to 0, the record
+header parameter NP2 will be used to determine the
+starting pixel.
+.le
+.ls make_image = yes
+This switch determines whether the IDS records are converted to IRAF images.
+When \fImake_image\fR = no, only a listing of the headers is produced, 
+no output image is written.
+.le
+.ls print_pixels = no
+When this parameter is set to yes, the values of the ids pixels are printed.
+.le
+.ls long_header = no
+This parameter determines whether a long or short header is printed.  The
+short header contains only the record number and ID string; the long header
+contains all information available 
+including the RA, Dec, HA, ST, UT, reduction flags, airmass, integration time,
+starting wavelength and wavelength per channel information.
+.le
+.ls data_type = "r"
+The data type of the output IRAF image.  If an incorrect data_type or null
+string is entered, the default data type \fIreal\fR is used.
+.le
+.ls offset = 0
+The integer value of this parameter is added to each IDS record number when
+generating output filenames.  Filenames are of the form 
+.nf
+	\fIiraf_file\fR.record_number+\fIoffset\fR
+
+.fi
+The offset parameter can be used to create a sequence of output IRAF 
+filenames with continuous, sequential suffixes over more than one night's data.
+.le
+.ih
+DESCRIPTION
+The IDS records from either a raw or reduced IDS mountain tape are read and
+optionally converted to a sequence of one dimensional IRAF images.  The records
+to be read can be specified.  The IDS header information is printed in either 
+a short or long form.  The pixel values can be listed as well.
+
+The entire image may be extracted (default for reduced data) by specifying
+the parameters np1=1 and np2=1024 (IIDS and IRS). Otherwise, the
+header parameters NP1 and NP2 will be used to indicate the useful
+portion of the spectrum. For raw data these values are 6 and 1024 for the
+IIDS and 68 and 888 for the IRS (your IRS values may vary).
+
+On the mountain, the NEW-TAPE command writes a dummy record on tape with a
+record number equal to the starting record number minus 1.  If this dummy
+record number is included in the \fIrecord_numbers\fR range, a meaningless
+IRAF image will be written.  In most cases, the dummy record number = 0.
+.ih
+EXAMPLES
+[1] Convert all records on the IDS tape to IRAF images, with the root image name
+being "aug83".  The data is mountain reduced, and all records will be
+converted.  The IDS tape is mounted on mtb.
+	
+	cl> ridsmtn mtb aug83
+
+[2] List the headers from the same mountain tape read in example 1 but don't
+make output images.  A \fIlong_header\fR will be listed; sample output is shown.
+
+	cl> ridsmtn mtb make_image=no long_header=yes
