Subject: New FUSE IRAF Scripts


I have revamped the FUSE IRAF scripts to fix a number of bugs that users
have encountered (and fixed!).  The revised versions are attached below.

Summary of changes:

1. All multi-line internal IRAF task calls now have a backslash "\" at the
   end of each unfinished line.  This resolves "parser gagged" errors
   many people have encountered.

2. In fusecombine.cl, near the bottom, the "show=no" in the hedit call
   should be changed to "show-".  We do not know why ...

3. The arguments for listfuse.cl were defined incorrectly, and the directions
   were missing a parameter.  The correct syntax is

        cl> listfuse infile outfile yes                - or -
        cl> listfuse infile outfile no

   The last argument determines whether a two-line ascii header gets placed in
   the output.  This header is necessary if you are going to feed the file
   to specfit, but not needed otherwise.
