9 setpix [-vn] file.fts [x_range y_range value] [@valuefile]
10
12 Set a specified pixel or range of pixels in a FITS or IRAF image to a
13 specified value. More than one range of pixels and values may be speci‐
14 fied on one command line. A file of xrange yrange value triplets may be
15 used to set multiple regions at once. The image may be overwritten or a
16 new image created.
17
19 filename
20 Name of IRAF image header file or FITS file. This must be
21 present.

23 @coordfile
24 Name of file containing lines of the format
25 xrange yrange value where xrange and yrange are of the
26 format n or n-n or n,n,n or n-n,n-n and value my be integer or
27 floating point. value will be converted to the type of the
28 image. If a range is 0, the entire row or column specified by
29 the other non-zero range will be set to the indicated value. If
30 both ranges are zero, the entire image will be set to the speci‐
31 fied value. New in version 2.6.4.
32
33 xrange yrange value
34 Image coordinate x and y ranges and the value to which that
35 region will be set. Either one of these triplets or a file of
36 triplets, specified by @filename, must be present. xrange and
37 yrange are of the format n or n-n or n,n,n or n-n,n-n and value
38 my be integer or floating point. value will be converted to the
39 type of the image. If a range is 0, the entire row or column
40 specified by the other non-zero range will be set to the indi‐
41 cated value. If both ranges are zero, the entire image will be
42 set to the specified value. Ranges new in version 2.6.4.

44 -a <number>
45 Add constant to pixels
46
47 -d <number>
48 Divide pixels by constant
49
50 -i List each line which is dropped
51
52 -m <number>
53 Multiply pixels by constant
54
55 -n Write the output to a new file which is named by inserting an e
56 before the file extension. The new file is always written to the
57 current working directory.
58
59 -s <number>
60 Subtract constant from pixels
