7.4 More IDL routines

In the directory IDL/bflib/ a lot of useful routines can be found which can be used for further processing and visualisation of CO5BOLD data. For the visualisation of 2-D models or 2-D data slices in general we recommend plotfield.pro. With combox.pro further quantities can be calculated.
Furthermore, we currently develop a widget-based analysis tool called CO5BOLD AT (abbrev.: CAT) which will help to work with CO5BOLD data without having to write and edit own IDL code. The routines are stored (if available) in the directory IDL/COBOLDAT and have to be started with @cat. A more detailed documentation is planned.
