1.4.5.6 The tget Command

The tget command will recover saved values of the inputs of tasks. This is a convenient alternative to using the Python execfile command (see above).

Typing tget without a taskname will recover the saved values of the inputs for the current task as given in the current value of the taskname parameter.

Adding a task name, e.g. tget <taskname> will recover values for the specified task. This is done by searching for 1) a <taskname>.last file (see § 1.4.5.8 below), then for 2) a <taskname>.saved file (see § 1.4.5.5 above), and then executing the Python in these files.

For example,

   default(’gaincal’)   # set current task to gaincal and default
   tget                 # read saved inputs from gaincal.last (or gaincal.saved)
   inp                  # see these inputs!
   tget bandpass        # now get from bandpass.last (or bandpass.saved)
   inp                  # task is now bandpass, with recovered inputs
