fixpix is a utility for editing IRAF and FITS images. It replaces
regions of an image by interpolating linearly from the edges across the
narrowest dimension. It works much like IRAF's fixpix.
Command Line Arguments
filename
Name of IRAF image header file or FITS file. This must be present.
-v
Print more information about the process
-n
Write the output to a new file which is named by inserting an e
before the file extension. The new file is always written to the current
working directory.
Examples
1. Edit a IRAF image header and write a new image header file.
fixpix -n test.fit 10 20 15 30
produces file teste.fit, with the region with corners at
(10,20), (15,20), (15,30), and (10,30) replaced by pixels linearly
interpolated between columns 9 and 16.
2. Edit a FITS image using a bad pixel file and write it back to the
original file.
fixpix test.fit @badpix
produces file test.fit, with the regions described in the file
badpix replaced.
