NAME
fitstopgm - convert a FITS file into a portable graymap
SYNOPSIS
fitstopgm
[-image
N]
[FITSfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a FITS file as input.
Produces a portable graymap as output.
The results may need to be flipped top for bottom; if so, just
pipe the output through
pnmflip -tb.
OPTIONS
The
-image
option is for FITS files with three axes.
The assumption is that the third axis is for multiple images,
and this option lets you select which one you want.
All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.
REFERENCES
FITS stands for Flexible Image Transport System. A full description
can be found in Astronomy & Astrophysics Supplement Series 44 (1981),
page 363.
