User's Guide to Image Reduction Software for the RCT CCD Camera
This is a user's manual for those wishing to use the image reduction software I've written for the RCT Consortium. Here's a postscript version of the same manual.

A program installed on blackbox that might help you to locate RCT images belonging to you or to a specific project.

To get the image reduction software, you need at least two things, rctprogs.tar.gz (the stuff I've written; updated Mar. 17, 2005) and the FITSIO library, which you can download from http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/software/fitsio/fitsio.html.

So far, the RCT image headers are incomplete. If you want to reduce RCT data (so far) using this software, you'll have to modify the headers. I've written some software to do that and have included it in the latest rctprogs.tar.gz distribution. To fix the headers, use the Perl script "fixheaders" and see its README file for instructions.

Instructions for installing and using the software in rctprogs.tar.gz is available in the "User's Guide to Image Reduction Software for the RCT CCD Camera". Obviously you can ask me for help as well.
