Script generator

The observing script generator has now been extended such that scripts can be uploaded to the observer's account at the telescope in a sub-directory corresponding to the proposal number. With the introduction of the sequencer for the different instruments the generated scripts need to be made compatible. A preliminary version generating sequencer compatible scripts for ALFOSC has been made. With the ability of the sequencer to talk to various subsystems there is a need to significantly expand the capabilities of the script generator. A specific objective is to integrate as much as possible the instrument and telescope operations in the script generator. This will simplify observing and increase efficiency.
