ISISscripts

A huge (and extremely useful) collection of useful ISIS functions, written and maintained by the Remeis observatory (and certainly containing thousands of working hours by a variety of people) can be found here:

How to investigate the source code of available functions

In order to look up any code of a function as part of the ISISscripts navigate to its GIT-repository. You can see this folder once you require the ISISscripts (which might be done inside your .isisrc), e.g.,

loading /home/git/isisscripts.git/share/isisscripts.sl

Note for Remeis users: the repository is managed by GitLab. A local clone can be found in /data/git/isisscripts.git

Then change into the source code directory, e.g.,

cd /home/git/isisscripts.git/src

Now the tricky part: you need to find that file, where the function which source code you want to investigate is defined. If you're lucky, the file is named according to the function's name (with .sl suffix), so you can try

find . -iname "mc_sig.sl"

If this does not work, you can try to grep its function definition

grep -R "define mc_sig"
