dirin

procedure dirin[, file_name], _EXTRA=_EXTRA

Specify a directory from which data will be read. Compare to filein, which identifies a single file as the input source.

When dirin is used, data can be retrieved from any of the SDFITS files in that dir without the need to issue a new filein command.

Parameters
file_name in, optional string	The directory name to use. If omitted, a file selector GUI will appear and you can select the directory to use. You must select a directory in that case. If the file_name isn't a directory, the underlying code will recognize that and it will be as if you had used filein instead.
