gaussian_value, gaussian_radius
Sets a (1 - gaussian) taper to weight down SHORT baselines.
EXAMPLE
-------

1. To set a gaussian taper.

   0>selftaper 0.1,10
   Selfcal gaussian taper: value 0.1 at UV radius = 10 mega-wavelengths.
   0>

   The second line is the response from the selftaper command, confirming
   the taper selection.

2. To see the currently selected taper value omit all arguments:

   0>selftaper
   Selfcal gaussian taper: value 0.1 at UV radius = 10 mega-wavelengths.
   0>

3. To cancel a previously selected gaussian taper, type:

   0>selftaper 0
   No selfcal UV-taper is currently set.
   0>

PARAMETERS
----------
gaussian_value  - The value of the (1 - gaussian) taper at
                  'gaussian_radius'. Valid values lie between 0 -> 1
                  exclusive. Other values cause the cancellation of
                  any existing gaussian taper.
gaussian_radius - The UV radius at which (1 - gaussian) taper should
                  have RISEN to 'gaussian_value'. (values <= 0
                  de-select gaussian tapering). Unless changed with
                  the mapunits command, the units are
                  million-wavelengths.

To cancel a previous gaussian taper you should type: selftaper 0
Whenever a new UV data set is read with the 'observe' command
any existing gaussian taper is cancelled.

CONTEXT
-------
When required, this command should be called before using the selfcal
command.

Repeated cycles of clean tend to build up a model that first becomes
complete on long baselines. If amplitude selfcal is applied at this
point it will probably find solutions that pull down the observed
amplitudes at the shorter UV radii to match the incomplete model
there. To circumvent this, you should get selfcal to heavily weight
down the short baselines wrt the longer baselines by calling
selftaper.

A good indication of where the model and observed visibilities
diverge is given by the plot of UV amplitude vs UV radius in radplot.

Selftaper forces subsequent invocations of selfcal to weight down
the visibilities as a function of radius. The form of this function
is.

 (1-gaussian(uv_radius))

In detail:

 (1 - exp(log(1-gaussian_value)*(uv_radius/gaussian_radius)^2)

This goes from 0 at zero UV radius, reaches value=gaussian_value at
a UV radius=gaussian_radius and approaches 1 as UV radius tends
to infinity.
