Abbreviations

There is an experimental system that allows you to abbreviate parameter keywords to the minimum unambiguous length. To use it, you must first create an environment variable called ADAM_ABBRV with an arbitrary value.

So for example

     % setenv ADAM_ABBRV true
     % display mo=pe pe=\[5,95\] ba=blue

would display an NDF between the 5 and 95 percentiles, and marking bad pixels in blue.

If you give an ambiguous keyword, the parameter system will present the list of possible keywords and ask you to select the one you intended.
