SYSTEM: V2.11.1-V2.11.2
NUMBER: 442 MODULE: doslit, dofibers, dohydra, doargus SYSTEM: V2.11.1-V2.11.2 DATE: Fri Sep 24 17:01:26 MST 1999 FROM: valdes BUG: When the new feature was added to allow an attempt to automatically determine the dispersion function, values of the parameters 'crval' and 'cdelt' both set to INDEF (the default parameter values) was supposed to skip the automatic identification. An oddity of the CL prevented these tasks from seeing this case and so they always try to do an automatic solution. With a large spectrum and a large line list and no guidelines as to the correct dispersion this can cause the tasks to take a very long time at the step where the dispersion is determined. The workarounds are to set these values to something close to what is expected or to use a short line list. STATUS: Fixed for the next release.
