rspfunc

irfs

 

use_energy_dispersion

edisp

 

exposure_cube_file

expcube

livetimecube (or ltcube) would be less ambiguous

source_model_file

srcmdl

srcmodel is short enough. Or insrcmodel
srcmodel is fine

source_model_output_file

sfile

Not clear. I suggest outsrcmodel

flux_style_model_file

fluxmdl

fluxmodel, or outfluxmodel

check_fit

 

 

statistic

 

 

optimizer

 

 

fit_tolerance

ftol

 

find_Ts_mins

Tsmin

Not clear, and better not have uppercase. I suggest tsreopt

write_output_files

save

 

query_for_refit

refit

Does not make sense in scripts anyway

evfile

 

 

evtable

 

 

scfile

 

 

sctable

 

 

exposure_map_file

expmap

 

plot

 

 

counts_map_file

cmap

I prefer cntmap, or cntcube

binned_exposure_map

bexpmap

 

apply_psf_corrections

psfcorr

target is simpler

iterate

Not clear. reoptimize is fine, reopt is also OK.
reopt is fine.

outfile

 

livetimecube (or ltcube) as in gtlikelihood
outfile makes it clear that this is the output for the tool

cos_theta_step

dcostheta

 

pixel_size

binsz

binsize is short enough
binsz was picked to match the imaging tools in the FTOOLS
