image.history - Function

1.1.1 Recover and/or list the history file


Description

This function allows you to access the history file.

If browse=F and list=F, the history is returned by the function as a vector of strings. If list=T, the history is sent to the logger.

CASA tools that modify the MeasurementSet or an image file will save history information. Also, you can directly annotate the history file with the function sethistory. History from FITS file conversions is also stored and listable here.
