        [MRTCAL\]MDUMP HduName ColumnName [/OUTPUT LogFile]

    Display  the content of all or one section from the internal memory buf-
    fers. Default section is ALL sections.

    One of the following section can be used:
      - ALL is a shortcut for SUMMARY + SUBSCANS + the HDUs list
      - SUMMARY displays a short summary of the file contents,  and  equiva-
        lence classes of the subscans (i.e. grouped by categories).
      - SUBSCANS shows a list of the subscans with their observing types,
      - HduName can be one of the following names:
          PRIMARY, SCAN, FRONTEND, BACKEND, DEROT
          BACKDATA, ANTSLOW, ANTFAST (of the current subscan)
      -  DATA  shows  a summary of the current subset of the DATA column for
        the current subscan. It also shows how  this  data  is  mapped  into
        chunksets.

    If  an HDU name is requested, the header keys are displayed (key + value
    + comment), and the table columns are summarized (key + a few  values  +
    comment  from associated TTYPE). If the HDU name is followed by a column
    name, the full column contents is displayed.

    Note that the internal IMB-FITS reader may apply patches  at  read  time
    (e.g.   old headers are patched to mimic the latest IMB-FITS format). In
    other words, what MDUMP shows in not exactly the FITS contents, but what
    the calibration engines use. In case of patch, the comments are replaced
    by a warning message with a brief explanation.
