A new feature in CONFIGMELD

The CONFIGMELD tool in SMURF can be used to compare two different sets of MAKEMAP configuration parameters. But sometimes you are only interested in a single parameter value, and wading through the entire configuration is bit off-putting. So now you can specify a single parameter name when running CONFIGMELD, and it will just display the value of that one parameter as plain text in your terminal window (that is, no visual comparison tool is used). Also, if you are only interested in the parameter value in a single config, then you can just leave CONFIG2 unspecified.


% configmeld ^/star/share/smurf/dimmconfig_bright_extended.lis  param=flagslow
   WAVEBAND - The waveband to display - 450 or 850 /850/ > 
   Showing 850 um values

   flagslow = 30


% configmeld map1 map2 param=flt.filt_edge_largescale
  Showing 450 um values
  flt.filt_edge_largescale = 600 (config1)
  flt.filt_edge_largescale = 400 (config2)

As always, to use this feature you will need to update your starlink to the current development version. Linux users can simple rsync Starlink from JAC following the instructions at http://starlink.jach.hawaii.edu/starlink/rsyncStarlink
