Hopefully the scripts contained in this cookbook are (a) useful and (b) work. They were however developed with CASA still a work in progress, and so scripts may break as commands, arguments, and keywords change. We developed this script extractor to allow us to easily extract scripts from these pages and run them. Feel free to try it!
How to Get the Script Extractor
Download the script extraction code.
# in bash
ftp ftp.eg.bucknell.edu
# log in anonymously with e-mail as password
cd pub/jgallimo
get extractCASAscript.py
If you have wget installed, this may be faster.
wget ftp://ftp.eg.bucknell.edu:/pub/jgallimo/extractCASAscript.py
How to Use the Script Extractor
Make your newly acquired python script executable.
# in bash
chmod u+x extractCASAscript.py
To run it, issue the python script name and give the URL as the argument. For example.
# in bash
extractCASAscript.py http://casaguides.nrao.edu/index.php?title=Example:_Calibrating_a_VLA_continuum_survey
This command will automatically generate a script called "Calibrating_a_VLA_Continuum_Survey.py."
