NAME:
	generate_from_files
 PURPOSE:
	Takes in all the input files and makes databases, webpages and plots
	This program uses ~xmmssc/public_html/xidops/fields_status.txt or a 
	similar file to find the input files it needs.
	If some input data is absent then that part of the program is ignored
	The program checks the directories for placing ouput files are there 
	and creates them if they are not (using a csh script
        ~xmmssc/soft/php/mk_outdirs.csh)
 CATEGORY:

 CALLING SEQUENCE:
	generate_from_files[,infile=infile,field_name=field_name,$
		xmm_list=xmm_list,offmax=offmax,offmax_apm=offmax_apm]
 OPTIONAL INPUT KEYWORDS
 	infile: text file containing the file names of inputs. Default is
		~xmmssc/public_html/xidops/fields_status.txt
	field_name: name of field to treat (from those listed in infile)
		case insensitive. Asked for if not given 
	xmm_list: type of list to choose if there are several
		case insensitive. Asked for if not given and there are several
	offmax: maximum offset for XMM/WFC/CIRSI matches 
		default is 5, arcsecs, max 30
	offmax_apm: maximum offset for XMM/APM matches
		default is 6, arcsecs, max 100
 
 DEPENDENCIES:

 The input files should be correctly named (when applicable) and placed in 
 directories as decribed in: 
 http://www.ast.cam.ac.uk/~xmmssc/xidops/dir_structure.html

 RESTRICTIONS

 Currently thew whole thing only works if there is XMM 52 and WFC i data
