1 GAUSS_SMOOTH GAUSS_SMOOTH This task performs a 2-D smoothing by an elliptical gaussian. The algorithm works in the Fourier plane and the first 2 dimensions (in pixels) should therefore be powers of two (but need not be equal). It is much faster than the equivalent sky plane algorithm, but you should beware of aliasing effects when the size of the convolving gaussian becomes a sizeable fraction of the map (say 30%). 2 Y_NAME$ TASK\FILE "Input file" Y_NAME$ The name of the input map (which can be a cube). 2 X_NAME$ TASK\FILE "Output smoothed image" X_NAME$ The name of the output smoothed map. 2 MAJOR$ TASK\REAL "Major axis of convolving gaussian" MAJOR$ The major axis of the smoothing gaussian in user coordinates (not pixels). 2 MINOR$ TASK\REAL "Minor axis of convolving gaussian" MINOR$ The minor axis of the smoothing gaussian in user coordinates (not pixels). 2 PA$ TASK\REAL "Position angle" PA$ The position angle of the major of the smoothing gaussian in (in degrees, from North towards East) 1 END
