show

procedure show[, dc], [/postscript], [filename=string], [/reshow], [/defaultx], [/portrait], [color=long integer]

This procedure displays a spectral line data container. If no dc is passed, the global container is used.

Examples
    ; a simple use of show:
    getrec,1
    show

    ; retrieve some records and place them in global data containers 1-10
    for i=1,10 do begin & getrec,i & copy,0,i & end

    show,2   ; show !g.s[2]
    show,5   ; show !g.s[5]
    oshow,6  ; overlay !g.s[6]

Parameters
dc
in, optional
data container or integer
a data container, or an integer index into the global data containers

Keywords
postscript
in, optional
boolean
If set, then this write to a postscript file given by filename.
filename
in, optional
string
Filename to use for postscript file. If not supplied, a file dialog will appear. This keyword is ignored unless postscript is set.
reshow
in, optional
boolean
When set, then dc argument is ignored and the previously set xarray will be re-used here. This allows other routines to set the xarray and speeds up this procedure when the same data is being reshown.
defaultx
in, optional
boolean
When set, the default x-axis (frame, velocity definition, units from the data header in absolute units) will be used. In the default case (unset), the current settings are retained.
portrait
in, optional
boolean
If set and the postcript keyword is also set, then the postscript will be generated in portrait mode instead of the default landscape mode.
color
in, optional
long integer (def. !g.showcolor)
The color for the primary data.
