data files found on the current directory.
A Ginga CUBE or TIME series for which it is desired to
generate a corresponding background file (using the program bgdsim). Any number of Ginga data

(including wild cards). |

| BGD_STARTDATE |
Start time of the required background period. Prefix with the
letter G (Gregorian date) or M (Modified Julian Date). The date should
be in the form Gyy mm dd hh mm ss mmm. Any ommited fields will

87/4/23 3:10:00.000. |
