munilist

NAME

munilist - utility for making listings from a set of photometry files

SYNOPSIS

munilist [ options ] output-file input-files ...

DESCRIPTION

The munilist command reads photometry files and creates the table of magnitudes of selected stars in the dependence on a time. The table is written to a output file in text format. The format of the table depends on given parameters and on the number of selected stars. It is usually the last step of reduction process.

The list of stars is given on command line, the stars are identified by index number according to their cross-reference identifiers.

INPUT FILES

Names of input files can be specified directly on a command-line as command arguments; it is allowed to use the usual wildcard notation. In case the input files are placed outside the working directory, you have to specify the proper path relative to the current working directory.

Alternatively, you can also prepare a list of input file names in a text file, each input file on a separate line. It is not allowed to use the wildcard notation here. Use the -i option to instruct the program to read the file.

OPTIONS

Options are used to provide extra information to customize the execution of a command. They are specified as command arguments.

Each option has a full form starting with two dashes and an optional short form starting with one dash only. Options are case-sensitive. It is allowed to merge two or more successive short options together. Some options require a value; in this case a value is taken from a subsequent argument. When a full form is used, an option and its value can also be separated by an equal sign. When a short form is used, its value can immediately follow the option.

Whenever there is a conflict between a configuration file parameter and an option of the same meaning, the option always take precedence.

--diff-mag

make table of differential instrumental magnitudes (default)

--inst-mag

make table of absolute instrumental magnitudes

--inst-mag

make table of absolute instrumental magnitudes

--track-list

make table of frame offsets

-s, --set name=value

set value of configuration parameter

-a, --aperture value

Aperture identifier (default=1)

-v, --variable-stars star...

comma separated list of identifier(s) of the variable star(s)

-c, --comparison-stars star...

comma separated list of identifier(s) of the comparison star(s)

-e, --check-stars star...

comma separated list of identifier(s) of the check star(s)

-i, --read-dirfile filepath

read list of input files from specified file; see the Files section for details.

-p, --configuration-file filepath

read parameters from given configuration file. See the Configuration file section for details.

-h, --help

print list of command-line parameters

-q, --quiet

quiet mode; suppress all messages

--version

print software version string

--licence

print software licence

--verbose

verbose mode; print debug messages

CONFIGURATION FILE

Configuration files are used to set the input parameters to the process that is going to be executed by a command. Use the -p option to instruct the program to read the file before other command-line options are processed.

The configuration file consists of a set of parameters stored in a text file. Each parameter is stored on a separate line in the following form: name = value, all other lines are silently ignored. Parameter names are case-sensitive.

aperture = value

Aperture identifier (default=1)

var = star...

comma separated list of identifier(s) of the variable star(s)

comp = star...

comma separated list of identifier(s) of the comparison star(s)

chk = star...

comma separated list of identifier(s) of the check star(s)

EXAMPLES

munilist ouptut.dat test1.pht test2.pht test3.pht

The command makes table of brightness of the star #2 (stored on second position in photometry files) relative to the star #3 for photometry files test1.pht, test2.pht a test3.pht; the resulting frame is stored to output.dat.

EXIT STATUS

The command returns a zero exit status if it succeeds to process all specified files. Otherwise, it will stop immediately when an error occurs and a nonzero error code is returned.
