CREATE/RAMP image [slope] [angle] [dimension ]
	generate uniform sloping image, with mean flux per pixel of 100 units
\us\pu
Purpose:   
           Generate uniform sloping background image, with mean flux per pixel 
           of 100 units.
\up\sy
Syntax:    
           CREATE/RAMP image [slope] [angle] [dimension]
\ys\pa
           image     = the output image name,
\ap\pa
           slope     = slope of the plane (units per pixel side length;
                       default = 1.0),
\ap\pa
           angle     = integer position angle of the gradient (degrees;
                       default = 0),
\ap\pa
           dimension = integer dimensions of axes of image (default = 128).
\ap\no
Note:      
           Position angle 0 gives a slope parallel to the x-axis, and angles
           up to 90 rotate the sloping plane in a counter-clockwise
           direction.
