Synopsis

This module is a bag of related systems classes and global functions.

The following functionality is available:

• Class Aipsrc to read the aipsrc general resource files.
• Class AipsrcValue to read values from the Aipssrc general resource files.
• Class AipsrcVector to read multiple values from the Aipssrc general resource files.
• Class AppInfo to hold general information for application.
• Class Choice to ask a user a choice.
• Class ObjectID to hold a unique identifier for distributed and other objects.
• Class PGPlotter to offer a standard plotting object for application programmers. using PGPlotterInterface as its abstract base class.
• Class ProgressMeter to offer visual indication of a tasks progress.

Tip: You may want to look at the individual header files to see whether you might not prefer to include only the header files you really need; it may be more efficient to do so;
