[Mesa-users] How to use filters

[Rob Farmer]

Hi,
By default if you just want the magnitudes in U  and V you can add the
following to your history_columns.list file:

abs_mag V
abs mag U

if you want all available filters then instead add:
add_abs_mag

However, the bolometric corrections that ship with MESA are aimed at normal
stars not WDs. So you'll want to look at the instructions for adding your
own file of bolometric corrections.
