FILENAME \us\pu Purpose: Change file name to the name stored in descr. FILENAME \up\su Subject: Images, tables, fit files, catalogs \us\sy Syntax: RESTORE/NAME [file_spec] [verbose] [history] [overwrite] [descr] \ys\pa file_spec = name of single file or catalog name (with type `.cat'); \\ defaulted to currently active image catalog \ap\pa verbose = YES or NO, to display new name for each file as well as error messages or comments; \\ defaulted to YES \ap\pa history = flag for update of HISTORY descriptor; \\ if NO, the history descriptor of the new frame is not updated; \\ defaulted to NO \ap\pa overwrite = flag for overwrite check; \\ if CONFIRM, we check, if a file with the new name already exists and if so, ask for confirmation before overwriting it; \\ defaulted to NO_CONFIRM \ap\pa descr = name of character descriptor which should be used, if the descr. FILENAME does not exist for an input file; \\ defaulted to IDENT \ap\sa See also: INTAPE/FITS, INDISK/FITS, CREATE/ICAT, READ/DESCR, RENAME/IMAGE \as\no Note: The parameters may also be referenced via: \\ FILE_SPEC= VERBOSE= HISTORY= OVERWRITE= DESCR= \\ Images, tables and fit files are supported as well as catalogs of these. \\ This command is especially useful after the INTAPE/FITS command in order to get the original filenames back. \on\exs Examples: \ex RESTORE/NAME Use the currently active image catalog. For each image frame in that catalog look for the char. descriptor FILENAME. If found, rename the frame to the content of FILENAME. Display new name for each image. \xe\ex RESTORE/NAME dosequis.bdf If the image `dosequis.bdf' has a char. descriptor FILENAME containing e.g. the string `cartablanca.bdf' it will be renamed to cartablanca.bdf . \xe\ex RESTORE/NAME tecate.cerveza no ? conf Rename file `tecate.cerveza' to the content of descriptor FILENAME, e.g. `paulaner.bier'. If a file named `paulaner.bier' already exists the user is asked for confirmation before actually renaming the input file. The file type, e.g. table, will be determined and any active table catalog is updated. The new name of `tecate.cerveza' is not displayed. \xe\ex RESTORE/NAME bohemia.cat descr=fitname Rename all files in catalog bohemia. The actual type of the catalog, e.g. fit file catalog, will be determined and all fit files with entries in `bohemia.cat' will be renamed according to the content of descriptor FILENAME. If the descr. FILENAME does not exist for one of the input fit files, we try to use descr. FITNAME instead. \xe\sxe
