NAME

rescale_units - rescale spatial coordinates


PARAMETERS

rescale_units uses the standard parameter interface

input file

Input ray stream. If the filename is the string stdin, it reads the UNIX standard input stream. It accepts rays in bpipe format. The only prerequite on the ray stream is that the ray position (BP_AXAF_phot_pos) field be present.

output file

Output ray stream. If the filename is the string stdout, it writes to the UNIX standard output stream. It writes rays in bpipe format.

scale_factor double

scale_factor for the rescaling operation. The X, Y, and Z components of the ray position are multiplied by scale_factor.

version boolean

Print out rescale_units's version and exit.

help boolean

Print out help and exit.

debug list

A list of debug flags. None are presently defined.


DESCRIPTION

rescale_units reads a ray stream in bpipe format, scales the position coordinates by scale_factor, and writes the stream out as a bpipe formatted ray stream.
