squash - Extracts a two-dimensional white-light image from a three-dimensional IFU NDF.

Description:

This shell script reads a three-dimensional IFU NDF as input and allows you to extract a specific spectral range from the cube to form a white-light image.

Usage:

squash [-i filename] [-l number] [-o filename] [-p] [-u number]

Command-line Arguments

• -i filename
  The script will use this as its input file, the specified file should be a three-dimensional NDF, by default the script will prompt for the input file.

• -l number
  Lower spectral-axis bound of the region of interest.

• -o filename
  The filename for the output white-light or passband image. By default the script will prompt for the name of the output file.

• -p
  The script will plot the extracted image to the current display as well as saving it to an NDF file. [FALSE]

• -u number
  Upper spectral-axis bound of the region of interest.
