Subject: Comments: CON_WIDTH_FUNCT_2.PRO



two days ago, I tried to distribute by sumer-soft the message appended,
but it obviously did not happen. I learned from this failure that the
tool is out of operation (maybe I should have known that before).
For your information, I add here the exact changes as well:

; Emphasized operation of keyword /FWHM                   #### 11 September 2000
..............
; Input:                                                                    ####
..............
; fwhm_out: Detector output (input to function; use FWHM, even if you       ####
; are working on the default setting!!) in mE                               ####
.............
; FWHM       (keyword /FWHM)       :   FWHM in mE
; Controls only the output of the function, but not the input, which is     ####
; FWHM in any case!                                                         ####

Subject: SUMER Line Width Correction: Con_width_funct_2.pro (Input)

Dear colleagues,

I have today modified the comments accompanying the "con_width_funct_2.pro"
function, in order to stress even more that the line width (the output of
the detector) which has to be entered into the function as input always must
be in FWHM. The output of the function can be controlled by keywords to be
either Doppler width or FWHM. These modifications do not change the function
itself in any way. The reason for my action was that, unfortunately, a
misunderstanding happened in this context, which led to wrong line widths.
 
With best regards,
 
Klaus Wilhelm
