% @(#)drs.help 17.1.1.1 (ESO-IPG) 01/25/02 17:43:33 Use drs (Data Reduction System) from the Unix command line as: drs [-d(ebug)] [-u(pdate)] [-f(its output)] Midas_command for option = d, the command sent to Midas is printed again by default FITS files are not updated in Midas (for backw. compatibility) for option = u, also FITS files are updated Midas (.bdf) files are always updated for option = f, all result frames are created in FITS format drs -h to get this text Due to the shell expansion mechanism, characters like e.g. `*' or `)' have to be entered as `\*', `\)' or the whole string must be enclosed in `"' (double quotes). Examples: 1) read all FITS keywords beginning with `ST' of a FITS file $ drs read/descr image.fits st\* or $ drs read/descr image.fits "st*" 2) delete all ESO hierarchical FITS keywords of FITS file image.fits $ drs -u delete/descr image.fits ESO.\* the command above triggers the following processing: the FITS file is converted to internal Midas format (all in memory) in the conversion all `HIERARCH ESO abc xyz keywords are translated into descriptors `ESO.abc.xyz' all descriptors beginning with the string `ESO.' are deleted the file is written out in FITS again note, that the "-u" flag is needed, otherwise the FITS file is NOT updated
