;+
; NAME:
;  eit_parms
; PURPOSE:
;  Generally used as a sub-routine in EIT_FLUX, EIT_TEMP. This
;  routine reads the instrument calibration parameters.
;
; CALLING SEQUENCE:
;   Area = eit_parms(waves,band,filter,text,header,[units=units],
;
; INPUTS:
;   waves:   wavelength array of intest
;   band:    bandpass (e.g. 171,195,284,304)
;   filter:  Filter wheel selection, default = 'CLEAR=clr', 
;            can select 'al1', 'al2'
;
; OUTPUTS:
;   area:    The effective area per wavelength, default units =
;             cm^2 dn sr Ang photons^-1
;
; OPTIONAL INPUT KEYWORDS:
;
; OPTIONAL OUTPUT KEYWORDS:
;   text:      returns text description of calibration
;   header:    returns file header information
;   units:     returns output units
;
; RESTRICTIONS:
;   The SOHO EIT calibration is presently being upgraded. This file
;   may change. Updates will be posted on EIT homepage.
;
; MODIFICATION HISTORY:
;   1999 May 11, J.S. Newmark, Written.
;   1999 November 12, J.S. Newmark, New Calibration - 
;            Dere et al. Sol.Phys. 2000 
;            Modifications from this include far wings and
;            second order He II in 304 bandpass. These modifications
;            have almost negligible effect on final output.
