A simple recispe for reducing three nights is given below.
# Specify where the raw data are stored and which night are to be processed
% cat BaseDir
/home/sco/AD/HET_work/acm_nights
% cat head -5 list.Dates
20170903
20180402
20190219
% acm_BigRed list.Dates N N
arg1 - Name of file with list of UT dates to be processed
arg2 - Allow interactive query of user (Y/N)
arg3 - run in verbose/debug mode
After the acm_BigRed has completed the run, then your processed images
will reside in the current working directory in subdirectories named for
each UT night processed.
% ls
20170903/ 20180402/ 20190219/ BaseDir list.Dates
ACM.images ACM.parlab ACM.table
list.IMAGES Mean.BIAS list.BIAS list.DARK list.OPEN
Inside each date subdirectory are the processed images , for example:
% pwd
/home/sco/ACM_BIAS_STUDY/reds5/20190219/local_red
% ls
FIXUP/ HDFIX/
HDFIX = images with cleaned and augmented image headers
HDFIX = bias (including FBP) and dark frame corrected images
As the pipeline progresses other subdirectories will appear.
