mollcursor
mollcursor should be run immediately following mollview. It gives the longitude, latitude, map value and pixel number corresponding to the cursor position in the window containing the map generated by mollview. Mouse buttons are used to select the function :left button = display the information relative to the current cursor position,
middle button = print out this information in the IDL command window
right button = quit mollcursor

After mollview reads in a map and generates its mollweide projection, mollcursor is run to know the position and flux of bright synchrotron sources, for example.
