Getting help

Help is available in two forms; from the command-line and via a hypertext version of this document. The command-line version is available with

% scuhelp

and the hypertext version can be obtained with

% findme surf

or

% showme sun216

A WWW browser will be started up if necessary.

It is possible to start the help system when responding to an ADAM prompt. Supplying a `?' will give more information on the parameter being requested and supplying `??' will start the interactive help system.

There are also two cookbooks available; one dealing with the reduction of photometry data [9] and the other dealing with the reduction of map data [10].

Alternatively the JCMT software group can be contacted directly via the World-Wide-Web. Information on known bugs and updates will be available there.

A mailing list now exists for discussing SCUBA data reduction techniques. The list is at scubadr@jach.hawaii.edu. To subscribe, send an email message to majordomo@jach.hawaii.edu with an empty subject and containing the message:
