33 38 5. ctselect - CTA event selection
34 39 ---------------------------------
35   -None
  40 +Added handling of observation definition XML files. ctselect can now
  41 +operate on single FITS files or on observation definition XML files.
  42 +
  43 +If an observation definition XML file is used on input, selected event
  44 +list(s) will be written in the current working directory by prepending
  45 +a prefix to the filename after stripping any path information. The
  46 +event list filenames in the input XML file are replaced by the selected
  47 +event list filenames, and the result is written as XML file in the
  48 +file specified by the outfile parameter.
  49 +
  50 +The output event list or observation definition file parameter is
  51 +not queried any longer as first parameter. This gives a more logicial
  52 +parameter interface where input parameters are queried first.
  53 +
36 54  
37 55 6. ctbin - CTA event binning
38 56 ----------------------------
39   -None
  57 +Added handling of observation definition XML files. ctbin can now
  58 +operate on single FITS files or on observation definition XML files.
  59 +
  60 +If an observation definition XML file is used on input, counts map(s)
  61 +will be written in the current working directory by prepending a prefix
  62 +to the filename after stripping any path information from the event
  63 +filenames. The event list filenames in the input XML file are replaced
  64 +by the counts map filenames, and the result is written as XML file in the
  65 +file specified by the outfile parameter.
  66 +
  67 +The output counts map or observation definition file parameter is
  68 +not queried any longer as first parameter. This gives a more logicial
  69 +parameter interface where input parameters are queried first.

41 72 7. ctlike - CTA maximum likelihood fitting
42 73 ------------------------------------------
43   -None
  74 +Added handling of observation definition XML files. ctlike can now
  75 +operate on single FITS files or on observation definition XML files.
  76 +
  77 +The analysis method is now determined from the input file type,
  78 +and consequently, the method parameter has been removed. Furthermore,
  79 +the evfile and cntmap parameters have been combined in a single infile
  80 +parameter.
  81 +
  82 +The output model file parameter is not queried any longer as first
  83 +parameter. This gives a more logicial parameter interface where input
  84 +parameters are queried first.
