Keeping your version up to date

Various files in MIRIAD will be updated from time to time. Even if the source code does not change, there will be updated Flux Catalog and CARMA Baseline data. This is where CVS will come in very handy, so make sure this is installed on your computer. The very first time you want to use cvs you may not the ``login'' and store the anonymous password.

  1% cd $MIR
  2% cvs login
  Logging in to :pserver:anonymous@cvs.astro.umd.edu:2401/home/cvsroot
  CVS password:
  3% cvs -nq update
  ...
  M src/inc/maxdim.h
  M src/inc/maxdimc.h
  ...
  U src/subs/fitsio.for
  U src/prog/misc/itemize.for
  ...

Lines that start with ``U'' need to be updated:

  4% cvs update

after which subroutine can be added to the library, and programs can be re-installed:

  5% mirboss
  6% mir.subs fitsio
  7% mir.prog itemize
