NAME
%DataTypeName (or %K) - Data type record identifier (and aliases)
SYNOPSIS
%DataTypeName identifier [ alias... ]
DESCRIPTION
Give the identifier of a data_type. This identifier can
be followed by aliases (separated by spaces or tab).
The characters comma (,) and : (colon) are not allowed in
identifier.
dollar ($) and parenthesis ((,)) are reserved to define variable
data type identifier (see the field %DataType.Conv).
All identifiers and aliases have to be different in a same
service (see %Owner field).
Rem: there are four default data types defined in GLU (under
"GLU'dommgr" service):
1) Mime($MimeType) : MIME type ex: Mime(text/html)
2) Coo($Sys,$Fmt) : Astronomical coordinates
where $Sys can be:
J2000 Standard Julian coord.
B1950 Standard Besselian coord.
FK4[:equinox] Besselian coord. with an equinox (defaults to 1950)
F54[:equinox] Julian coord. with an equinox (defaults to 2000)
GAL Galactic coordinates
SGAL Supergalactic coordinates
ECL Ecliptic Coordinates
where $Fmt can be:
COOd The entire coord. string in decimal degrees (76.96583 -76.44222)
COO The entire coord. string in sex. format (05 07 51.8 -76 26 32)
RA The RA in standard sexigesimal form (05 07 51.8)
RAdeg The RA in degrees (76.96583)
RAh The hours of right ascension (05)
RAhd The RA in decimal hours (5.13106)
RAm The minutes of RA (07)
RAmd The minutes of RA including any fractional minutes (07.9)
RAs The seconds of RA (52)
RAsd The seconds of RA including fractional seconds (51.8)
DE The DE in standard sexigesimal form (-76 26 32.0)
DEdeg The DE in degrees (-76.44222)
DEd The degrees of DE (-76)
DEm The minutes of DE (26)
DEmd The minutes of DE including fractional minutes (26.5)
DEs The seconds of DE (32)
DEsd The seconds of DE including fractional seconds (32.0)
LON The longitudinal coord. in degrees (288.48372)
LAT The latitudinal coord. in degrees (-32.30250)
3) J2000 : equivalents to Coo(J2000,COO) data type
4) B1950 : equivalents to Coo(B1950,COO) data type
