ASTSCRIPT-SORT-BY-NIGHT(1)	 User Commands	    ASTSCRIPT-SORT-BY-NIGHT(1)

NAME
       astscript-sort-by-night - Sort input FITS files by night

SYNOPSIS
       astscript-sort-by-night [OPTION]	FITS-files

DESCRIPTION
       This script is part of GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.23.

       This  script will look into a HDU/extension for a header	keyword	in the
       given FITS files	and interpret the value	as a date. The inputs will  be
       separated  by  "night"s.	 The  definition  a  "nights"  is set with the
       '--hour'	option (just note that the FITS	time may be recorded  in  UTC,
       not local time)!	It will	then print a list of all the input files along
       with  the  following  two columns: night	number and file	number in that
       night (sorted by	time). With '--link' a symbolic	link (one for each in-
       put) will be made with  names  including	 the  night  classifier.  With
       '--copy'	instead	of a link, a copy of the inputs	will be	made.

       For more	information, please run	any of the following commands. In par-
       ticular	the  first  contains  a	very comprehensive explanation of this
       script's	invocation: expected input(s), output(s), and a	full  descrip-
       tion of all the options.
