WCS-MATCH(1)

πŸ’« NAME πŸ’«

okay so bestie, gather round β€” this is the manual for wcs-match, and the whole entire job of this icon is: Prints x and y coordinates of invariant point. that's it. that's the gig. she prints coordinates of the invariant point and she does it with main character energy πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

no flags required, she just walks in and does her thing:

wcs-match

πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

so like, the description section here is lowkey just a lil list of options, and I am obsessed with how straightforward it is. here's the full rundown, no notes, nothing skipped 🫢

  • -1 file β€” this is your WCS first input file. the first one. the OG. ✨
  • -2 file β€” and this is your WCS second input file. the sequel. the second one. πŸ¦‹
  • -h β€” bestie it's just -h, the manpage gives us no description for this one, so I'm not gonna make anything up, I'm just gonna hold it up like a little treasure and say: there it is 🌸
  • -v β€” the verbose flag, noted in the page as +verbose. she's chatty. she's giving commentary. πŸ’¬
no cap, that's literally the whole list β€” I didn't merge anything, I didn't rename anything, every single one is right there πŸ‘‘

πŸ‘‘ AUTHOR πŸ‘‘

the Astronomy.net team made this, and the principal investigators are, and I quote, David W. Hogg (NYU) and Dustin Lang (CMU). absolute legends, both of them, we stan πŸ«‘πŸ’–

and that's a wrap on the whole page, bestie!! this was version 0.56 from way back in July 2015 β€” yeah, she's vintage, she's a classic, and she's still out here printing invariant point coordinates like the icon she is. periodt. πŸ’…πŸŽ€πŸ¦‹βœ¨
