---+ Sequence of commands to reduce AMBER data


   * Launch yorick: ==rlterm yorick==
   * Load the amdlib yorick plugin (once yorick is launched): ==include,"amdlib.i"==
   * Get help on any yorick or amdlib function: ==help, [function name]==
   * Quit yorick: ==quit==

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   * Compute the log file: ==amdlibCreateLog==

   * Load bad pixel map: ==amdlibLoadBadPixelMap==
   * Show bad pixel map: ==amdlibShowBadPixelMap==

   * Load flat field map: ==amdlibLoadFlatFieldMap==
   * Show flat field map: ==amdlibShowFlatFieldMap==

   * Show the content of a raw data file: ==amdlibShowRawData==, check for the many options that appear on the yorick command line

   * Compute a P2VM: ==amdlibComputeP2vm==
   * Same but on a series of P2VM: ==amdlibComputeAllP2vm==
   * Show a P2VM: ==amdlibShowP2vm==

   * Compute raw visibilities: ==amdlibComputeOiData==
   * Same but on a full night: ==amdlibComputeAllOiData==
   * Show raw visibilities: ==amdlibShowOiData==
   * Store postscript files of all OI fits files: ==amdlibShowAllOiData==

   * Average visibilities (including data selection): ==amdlibPerformFrameSelection==. Check the selValue, selType, and selCriterion options in the help of the function
   * Average a bunch of visibilities: ==amdlibPerformAllFrameSelection==

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   * Build a calibrators diameters database: ==amdlibGetCalibSize==, Here you MUST use the ==noSearch=1== option as there is NO Internet connexion at the school network. At home, without this option, it will seach for online calibrators catalogs to fill-in the ~/amdlibCalibDatabase.txt file
   * Compute the transfer function: ==amdlibComputeTransFunc==
   * Plot the transfer function as a function of wavelength: ==amdlibPlotTransFuncWlen==
   * Plot the transfer function as a function of time: ==amdlibPlotTransFuncTime==. Do not hesitate to read the help to set the wavelength range on which the transfer function is computed.
   * Calibration of ONE science star file with ONE calibrator star file: ==amdlibDivideOiData==
   * Calibration of SEVERAL science star files with a FULL-FEATURED transfer function on calibrator stars: ==amdlibCalibrateOiData==, do not hesitate to play with the ==polDeg=== option

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Once you have reduced all your data, you can combine them all into a single OI FITS file in order to use it in model-fitting tools (e.g. ==LITpro==) or image-reconstruction tools (e.g. ==MIRA==).

To do that you can use the oifits utility from IAU ==oifitslib==: just type ==oifits-merge -h== in a command line to know how it works
