count
- Determines the number of variable values meeting a given criteria, and prints that number
to UNIX stdout. The number can be reported in one of three ways: count, percent of the
total number of values, or percent of the number of good values. Percents are rounded to
the nearest integer. |
 |
diskhogs
- Removes the oldest files matching a given wildcard expression until the disk space
occupied by all matching files no longer exceeds a given threshold. Maximum file count and
file age criteria are optionally supported; matching files are removed until all criteria
are met. File age is determined either by the last modify time, or by the pass_date
and start_time dataset attributes. The dry_run parameter allows the user to
see what files would be deleted without actually deleting them. |
 |
getconfig
- Scripting tool that reads settings from $PASSDIR/system.config. |
 |
smath -
Shell
scripting tool that allows shell scripts to do real valued arithmetic. |
 |
logrun
- Post-process logging tool. |
 |
nearestfile
- Finds nearest qualified files and report to UNIX stdout. |
 |
testcover
- Tests the percent a given master area is covered by a specified input dataset
variable. |
 |
timediff
- Computes the time difference between two TeraScan datasets or one TeraScan
dataset and a user specified date and time. |
 |
tsargs -
Processes TeraScan style argument lists in C-shell scripts. |
 |
tsdate
- Writes date difference or converted date to UNIX stdout. |
 |
tsparams
- Processs TeraScan style argument lists in C-shell scripts. |
 |
varnames
- Lists dataset variables to UNIX stdout, so it can be captured in shell variables as part
of a shell script. |
 |
copydimvars
- Copies dimension variables from an input dataset to an output dataset. The most
common examples of dimension variables are elevation variables such as those found in
TOVS, SSMT1 and SSMT2 datasets. |
 |
doppsat
- Reports the satellite down- and uplink doppler shifts, down- and uplink frequencies,
elevation, azimuth, and doppler speed for a given receiver and specified times. |
 |
datename
- Outputs a TeraScan-like pass filename from date, time, and satellite input
parameters. This function is useful for naming the output filenames produced within
processing scripts. |
 |
deflate
and inflate are two very unusual functions for
working with piped serialized variable data. Currently, only two ingesters,
hrptin and metin
have options that allow variable data to be serialized and piped to UNIX stdout. deflate
and inflate are provided as a mechanism for efficiently transferring ingested
datasets from a reception machine to a remote processing machine over a low-bandwidth
network. |
 |
dumpvar - Dumps variable data in ASCII. Unlike printvar,
which outputs scaled data, dumpvar outputs unscaled data, e.g., data exactly as it
is stored. |
 |
hatch
- Converts a given 2-D numeric variable into a cross-hatched faxable image. The variable is
divided into areas in a manner similar to contouring. Unlike contouring, areas are
determined by their central values. Each area is then filled with a cross-hatch
pattern. |
