3.4.2.2 List

mode                =     ’list’        #  Flagging mode (list/manual/clip/shadow/quack/elevation/tfcro
                                        #   p/rflag/extend/unflag/summary)
     inpfile        =         ’’        #  Input file with list of commands to run
     reason         =      ’any’        #  Select by REASON types

A list of flags can be provided through a file specified by the inpfile parameter. Each input line may contain a flagging mode with data selection parameters as well as parameters that are specific to that mode. All parameters that are not set will be reset to their default values (default mode is ’manual’). Each line of this file will be taken as a command to the tflagdata task. This mode=’list’ is similar to the task flagcmd with the inpmode=’file’ option.

An example for such a file would be:

mode=’shadow’
mode=’clip’ clipminmax=[0,5] correlation=’ABS_ALL’
mode=’quack’ quackmode=’end’ quackinterval=1.0
antenna=’ea01’ timerange=’00:00:00~01:00:00’
antenna=’ea11’ timerange=’00:00:00~03:00:00’ spw=’0~4’

The syntax should be written with quotes e.g. mode=’manual’ antenna=’ea10’ but will usually also be accepted without the quotes (like mode=manual antenna=ea10). Spaces are only allowed to separate pairs of parameters, not adjacent to the equal ’=’ signs or inside strings and there are no commas between the subparameters on each line.
