CSUB-Subtracts a continuum from 2 dimensional data

Description:
A polynomial is fitted to the continuum and this is subtracted. As with VIG, lines can be excluded from the polynomial fitting. CSUB stores the polynomial fitting coefficients in the actual data file.

Parameters:
IMAGE
IMAGE = FILE (Read) Name of image for input
OLD
OLD = LOGICAL (Read) Old coefficients are to be used for correction
OUTPUT
OUTPUT = FILE (Write) Name of output file OUTPUT is the name of the resulting spectrum. If OUTPUT is the same as INPUT the data in the input file will be modified in situ. Otherwise a new file will be created.
