ADDPIX(1)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so addpix — it's giving AME, bestie. that's the whole name. short, sweet, iconic. ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

addpix [-vn] file.fts x y value...

like, that's it. that's the whole call. you give it a file, a coordinate, and some numbers. slay. 💅

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

bestie listen. addpix adds to a pixel of a FITS or IRAF image file. not "sets" — adds. it goes and bumps the value up (or down, we don't judge) on the pixel you point at. 🎀

so you hand it file.fts, then x and y for where the pixel lives, then value... — and yeah that's value... with the dots, meaning one or more values, because why stop at one. 💜

here's the flags, no gatekeeping:

• -n — write a new file instead of touching your original. if you don't pass this, it just overwrites. yes, the original. the actual one. no undo, no takebacks 🫶
• -v — verbose. it'll yap about what it's doing, which honestly? valid. we love a tool that narrates. 😭

⚠️ real talk: leave off -n and your input file gets overwritten. that's not a bug, that's the stated behaviour. back it up first if that scares you, because it scares me. 💀

and that's the whole vibe check, babes. this little legend comes to you from addpix on the EB_SOURCE tip, dated February 2026. go add some pixels. you got this. 👑✨🌸💖
