mConcatFit(1)


NAME

   mConcatFit - Merge multiple plane fit parameter files into one file

SYNOPSIS

   mConcatFit [-d] [-s statusfile] statfiles.tbl fits.tbl statdir

DESCRIPTION

   Merge  multiple  plane  fit  parameter  files (from mFitplane) into one
   file. This module is only  needed  in  a  Grid  environment  where  the
   mFitplane  jobs  may  run  in parallel on computers that do not share a
   file system. In this case, the fit parameters have to  be  merged  into
   one file before mBgModel can be called.

BUGS

   This module have been used extensively but have not been subject to the
   same rigorous testing to which the core modules have been subjected. We
   advise  users  to  contact  Montage  (montage@ipac.caltech.edu)  before
   employing them to verify limitations in their use and  changes  in  the
   interfaces.
