✨ FITS-COLUMN-MERGE ✨

okay bestie, so fits-column-merge is literally here to create a FITS binary table that has the columns from two input tables smushed together into one. two tables walk in, one table walks out 💅

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

fits-column-merge [-s suffix] file1 file2 outfile

like, you hand it file1 and file2, and it hands you back outfile. the glow-up is real 🦋

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -s suffix — the suffix to add onto any duplicate column names that came from file2. so if both files are out here naming a column the same thing (rude), file2's copy gets this suffix tacked on so nobody gets confused. no cap 🫶
