DESCRIPTION¶

For more information, please run any of the following commands. They will respectively show you the `Invoking MakeProfiles' subsection, the complete `MakeProfiles' section, or the full GNU Astronomy Utilities manual. In particular the first contains a very complete explanation of each option.

MakeProfiles options:

Input:

-h, --hdu=STR

Extension name or number of input data.

Output:

-C, --inputascanvas

Use input image for output size and WCS.

-D, --dontdelete

Don't delete output if it exists.

-i, --individual

Build all profiles separately.

-K, --keepinputdir

Do not remove input's dir info for output.

-m, --nomerged

Do not create a merged image of all profiles.

-o, --output=STR

Output file or directory name.

--psfinimg

PSF profiles made with all in output image.

-s, --oversample=INT

Scale of oversampling.

-T, --type=STR

byte, short, long, longlong, float, double.

-x, --naxis1=INT

Profiles:

-c, --prepforconv

-e, --envseed

Use GSL_RNG_SEED environment variable for seed.

--magatpeak

Magnitude is for peak pixel, not full profile.

-p, --tunitinp

Truncation is in units of pixels, not radius.

-r, --numrandom=INT

No. of random points in Monte Carlo integration.

-R, --replace

Catalog (column number, starting from zero):

--deccol=INT

Center declination.

--fcol=INT

Sersic (0), Moffat (1), Gaussian (2), Point (3), Flat (4), Circumference (5).

-F, --mforflatpix

mcol is flat pixel value (when f is 4 or 5)

--mcol=INT

Magnitude.

--ncol=INT

Sersic index or Moffat beta.

--pcol=INT

Position angle.

--qcol=INT

Axis ratio.

--racol=INT

Center right ascension.

--rcol=INT

Effective radius or FWHM in pixels.

--tcol=INT

Truncation in units of --rcol, unless --tunitinp.

--xcol=INT

Center along first FITS axis (horizontal).

--ycol=INT

Center along second FITS axis (vertical).

WCS parameters:

--crpix1=FLT

Pixel coordinate of reference point (axis 1).

--crpix2=FLT

Pixel coordinate of reference point (axis 2).

--crval1=FLT

Right ascension at reference point (degrees).

--crval2=FLT

Declination at reference point (degrees).

--resolution=FLT

Resolution of image (arcseconds/pixel).

Operating modes:

-?, --help

give this help list

--cite

BibTeX citation for MakeProfiles.

--nolog

No log file for programs which make one.

-N, --numthreads=INT

Number of CPU threads to use.

--onlydirconf

Only read current directory configuration file.

--onlyversion=STR

Only run if the program version is this.

-P, --printparams

Print parameter values to be used and abort.

-q, --quiet

Only report errors, remain quiet about steps.

-S, --setdirconf

Set default values for this directory and abort.

--usage

give a short usage message

-U, --setusrconf

Set default values for this user and abort.

-V, --version

print program version

Mandatory or optional arguments to long options are also mandatory or optional for any corresponding short options.
