NAME dumppix - dump pixels from a FITS image/cube to stdout SYNOPSIS dumppix [-s rate] [-x col] [-y lin] image.fits DESCRIPTION dumppix dumps pixel values from a FITS file to stdout in a format that can be read by gnuplot to display surfaces for example. As an image may contain too many pixels for useful surface display, a subsampling factor may be applied before dumping pixels (see -s option). Upon request, dumppix can only output the content of one line or one column instead of the whole image (see -x and -y options). OPTIONS -s rate Applies a brutal subsampling rate in x and y on the pixels before dumping. Default is set to 1 (all pix- els). Setting this to 2 would skip 1 pixel out of 2 in each direction, for example. -x col Output only the contents of column "col". The subsam- pling rate can also be applied here. The convention for pixel positions is FITS: x goes from 1 to NAXIS1. -y lin Output only the contents of line "lin". The subsampling rate can also be applied here. The convention for pixel positions is FITS: y goes from 1 to NAXIS2. FILES Input files can be images, cubes, or ASCII lists.
