ASTSCRIPT-PSF-STAMP(1)

NAME
astscript-psf-stamp - Make normalized stamp with other sources masked

SYNOPSIS
astscript-psf-stamp [OPTION] FITS-files

DESCRIPTION
This script is part of GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.24.

This script will consider a center position to make a normalized stamp. It is intendeed to generate several stamps and combine them to obtain a PSF.

For more information, please run any of the following commands. In particular the first contains a very comprehensive explanation of this script's invocation: expected input(s), output(s), and a full description of all the options.

Inputs/Outputs and options:
    $ info astscript-psf-stamp

Full Gnuastro manual/book:
    $ info gnuastro

If you couldn't find your answer in the manual, you can get direct help from experienced Gnuastro users and developers. For more information, please run:

    $ info help-gnuastro

  astscript-psf-stamp options:

    Input:

-h, --hdu=STR

    Output:

-o, --output
    Output table with the radial profile.

-t, --tmpdir
    Directory to keep temporary files.

-k, --keeptmp
    Keep temporal/auxiliar files.

    Operating mode:

-?, --help
    Print this help list.
