Normally, you would print this out after a reduction run, to have a record of what you have done. This may run a hundred or more pages in length, so you may want to use a reduced-size or ``two-up'' option in printing, if you have it available. The final values are also stored in a table named results.tbl, which can be incorporated in the Archive (using a procedure yet to be written!) You can extract values from this table to make tables or plots for publication. <P> To avoid cluttering up your reduction log with other MIDAS output, you can run the <TT>DELETE/LOGFILE</TT> command <I>before</I> starting the reductions. Note that the logfile (normally kept in your <TT>$HOME/midwork</TT> directory) is a flat ascii file that can be edited to remove unwanted matter before printing. <P> <BR><HR> <ADDRESS> <I>Petra Nass</I> <BR><I>1999-06-15</I> </ADDRESS> </BODY> </HTML>
