READ
[CLEAN\]READ Buffer File [/COMPACT] [/FREQUENCY RestFreq]
[/RANGE Min Max Type] [/NOTRAIL]
Read the specified internal buffer (BEAM, CCT, CGAINS, CLEAN, DIRTY, MASK,
MODEL, PRIMARY, RESIDUAL, SKY, SUPPORT, SINGLEDISH, UV) from input File
name. Default extension is .uvt for UV, CGAINS and MODEL, and for the oth-
ers, in order, .beam, .cct, .lmv-clean, .lmv, .msk, .lobe, .lmv-res, for
Data Cubes when the extension is given as .fits (see HELP READ FITS for more
details).
If the File name contains a wildcard (*), it is considered as a file filter,
and a search widget is opened if possible (if not an error occurs).
A subset of all available channels can be indicated through the /RANGE op-
tion, even for UV tables.
The corresponding buffer is available as a SIC image-like variable of the
same name, so that one can use e.g. HEADER DIRTY command.
READ * Name will attempt to read all existing files of same Name with the
standard file types corresponding to the respective buffers.
The /COMPACT option is used to load the ACA-specific internal buffer used in
the ALMA joint deconvolution method.
The /NOTRAIL allows to ignore trailing columns in UV data. This is normally
not recommended and should be used for debug only. An exception is for
"false" mosaics with just 1 field: see HELP READ /NOTRAIL for details.
