GSFITCP Help

GSFITCP is the command prompt counterpart of the GSFIT GUI microwave spectral fitting application. Once started, GSFITCP is designed to run in unattended mode until all fitting tasks assigned to it are completed and log on the disk in an user-defined *.log file, the content of which may be visualized using the GSFITVIEW GUI application. When run remotely on an Linux/Mac platform, the GSFITCP may be launched on a detached screen, which allows the remote user to logout without stopping the process in which GSFITCP runs.

GSFITCP Installation

GSFITCP is part of the GSFIT IDL Package

To get installation instructions for the IDL GSFIT package, please visit the GSFIT Installation page.

GSFITCP is launched using the following call:

IDL> gsfitcp, taskfile, nthreads, /start

where taskfile is a path to a file in which a GSFIT task has been previously saved, as explained in the GSFIT Help page, nthreads is an optional argument indicating the number of parallel asynchronous threads to be used, and the optional keyword /start, if set, requests immediate start of the batch processing.

A detailed description of the GSFITCP functionality is provided in the page linked below.
