Compute the 4 main "moments" of a data cube. If no argument is given, the
data cube is either the SKY one (if present) or the CLEAN one. The argument
may specify a Gildas file (when a . is present in the argument), or a SIC
Image variable.
The 4 moments are stored in new SIC Image variables:
M_AREA Integrated area over the velocity range
M_PEAK Peak brightness value
M_VELO Mean or peak velocity
M_WIDTH Weighted line width
The options control the method, the selected part of the cube (default chan-
nels from FIRST to LAST), and the threshold for detection (default 3 sigma).
The resulting images can be displayed using command SHOW MOMENTS and saved
using WRITE MOMENTS.
