WSPIROS -------
FUNCTION Program to produce for further analysing SPEX compatible files on energy spectrums of both sky sources and accumulated detector
USAGE wspiros infile rootfile [optional parameters]
DESCRIPTION If the input file contains an extension having EXTNAME = "WFC_Sourcelist" one FITS file '[rootname].src' will be produced plus for each source a SPEX compatible textfile having the name '[rootname]nn.spa', where 'nn' equals 1 thru 99 corresponding to the order in the input file. If the input file contains an extension having EXTNAME = "WFC_Eventspectrum" a SPEX compatible textfile having the name [rootname]00.spa is produced.
PARAMETERS
infile [string] The name of the input FITS file containing a sourcelist or a (partial) detector energy spectrum
rootname [string] The rootname of which the complete names the resulting output files will be composed.
(source=0) [integer <= 99] The single source number to be extracted. If 0 all available sources will be extracted.
(verbsty=0) [integer >= 0] The verbosity level will control the output volume.
(title=" ") [string] User caption to be tagged to each output FITS file header
EXAMPLE
1. Extract the sources and write result into files OBSw1prn##.spa and OBSw1prn.src
--> wspiros OBSw1prn1 OBSw1prn
NOTES - The program uses the parameter passing of the FTOOLS convention. - A maximum of 99 sources can be processed - The number of energy bands may not exceed 32 - Of the extension holding a sourcelist only the columns with the following names are extracted: 'ra', 'dec', 'flux', 'sigma', 'signif', 'cname', and 'tname' - The layout in the '.src' FITS file is such as to enable the use of standard plotting utilities for FITS compatible files
