SYNOPSIS

esorex kmo_fits_check [OPTIONS] FILE.sof

DESCRIPTION

Recipe to print information on FITS files, contained data/noise values or header keywords of all extensions of a fits file, preferably a KMOS fits-file (RAW, F1I, F2I, F3I, F2D etc.). This recipe is intended for debugging purposes only.

By default a short summary is printed.

The following data types of keywords are recognized: bool, char, double, float, int, long, string As input one fits-file is accepted, no output frame is generated.

BASIC PARAMETERS

--h With this parameter just the header keywords are printed:
  –1  prints the primary header and the headers of all the extensions
   0  prints just the primary header
   1  prints the header of the first extension etc.

--d With this parameter just the data (or depending on the extension: noise) is printed:
  –1 prints the primary header and the headers of all the extensions
   0 prints data of the primary header which is empty for KMOS FITS frames
   1 prints the data/noise of the first extension etc.

This parameter should only be used with very small datasets, otherwise the screen will be flooded with numbers.
