OBJCHECK

Name

objcheck

Purpose

Validate and summarize object positions and astrometry

Description

Reads astrometry and obj files from the current directory looking for
irregularites. Recommendations are provided that suggest running astrom
or looker on specific frames. These recommendations always point to
problem areas but sometimes the fix is something that takes care of a
problem that astrom or looker had with that frame, rather than something
that can be fixed by just running the programs.

Keyword Input Parameters

JUSTLOOK - Flag, if set turns off some printouts. This is not that useful
and may well disappear in later versions.

have zero or one valid positions. For any found, mark them
'n' and add "crud" to the id string.

Outputs

The file, check.lst, is written with the same information that is sent
to the screen to facilitate cleaning up any problems found.
