.SH OPTIONS
.TP
\fB\-\-stack_method\fR \fI<str>\fR
Frames combination method (str; default: \'median\'). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration
file is \fBfors.fors_img_sky_flat.stack_method\fR [default = \fImedian\fR].
.TP
\fB\-\-minrejection\fR \fI<int>\fR
Number of lowest values to be rejected (int; default: 1). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration
file is \fBfors.fors_img_sky_flat.minrejection\fR [default = \fI1\fR].
.TP
\fB\-\-maxrejection\fR \fI<int>\fR
Number of highest values to be rejected (int; default: 1). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration
file is \fBfors.fors_img_sky_flat.maxrejection\fR [default = \fI1\fR].
.TP
\fB\-\-klow\fR \fI<float>\fR
Low threshold in ksigma method (float; default: 3.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration
file is \fBfors.fors_img_sky_flat.klow\fR [default = \fI3.0\fR].
.TP
\fB\-\-khigh\fR \fI<float>\fR
High threshold in ksigma method (float; default: 3.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration
file is \fBfors.fors_img_sky_flat.khigh\fR [default = \fI3.0\fR].
.TP
\fB\-\-kiter\fR \fI<int>\fR
Max number of iterations in ksigma method (int; default: 999). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration
file is \fBfors.fors_img_sky_flat.kiter\fR [default = \fI999\fR].

.PP
Note that it is possible to create a configuration file containing these
options, along with suitable default values. Please refer to the details
provided by the 'esorex \-\-help' command.
