This page gives links to all of the programs available in the pipeline. The individual pages contain invocation lines such as
addfield field base root over nimage (seed xd yd xrms yrms)This shows the list of arguments, which are explained in more detail on each page. The round brackets denote arguments which may or may not be prompted for, depending upon the values of earlier arguments. Square brackets as in
cadd input constant output [nccd nwin]show arguments which by default are never prompted for, unless 'prompt' is specified on the command line. In this case they allow the user to add a constant to only one of the CCDs or one window of one CCD. Here is a full specification showing all possible variations:
rtplot [device source] ((url)/(file) first trim [(ncol nrow) twait tmax])/(flist) [pause] nccd [def] (defect) [setup] setwin bias (biasframe) ([stack]) xleft xright yleft yright iset (i1 i2)/(p1 p2) (gauss) ([fwhm hwidth readout gain sigma sigrej symm onedsrch (fwhm1d hwidth1d)])
The first two arguments are not prompted for. Depending upon the value of 'source' (in this case), either of url/file or flist will be prompted. If url or file are requested then 'first' and 'trim' will be requested, etc.
To setup the arguments fully the first time, you may want to type 'program prompt'. Having done this once, then subsequent calls without prompt will require a smaller number of inputs.
