The catalog module displays a list of disk files on your command line interface or in a GUI, depending upon how you set up your .aipsrc file.
Display the list of files in a File Catalog GUI by adding
the following line to your .aipsrc file:
catalog.default: gui
or
Display the list of files on your screen by adding
the following line to your .aipsrc file:
catalog.default: screen
File operations possible are: copying, renaming, deletion, viewing, selecting, etc..
A catalog tool is created by the global constructor function catalog. A default catalog tool called defaultcatalog is automatically created by typing include catalog.g in your glish command line window. You can use dc as a shortcut name for defaultcatalog.
Double-clicking on a directory will cause a show to that directory or will cause a selected file name to be sent back (if the select(anddismiss) option is enabled).
