NAME:
objcheck
PURPOSE:
Validate and summarize object positions and astrometry
DESCRIPTION:
Reads astrometry and obj files from the current directory looking for
irregularites. Recommendations are provided that suggest running astrom
or looker on specific frames. These recommendations always point to
problem areas but sometimes the fix is something that takes care of a
problem that astrom or looker had with that frame, rather than something
that can be fixed by just running the programs.
CATEGORY:

JUSTLOOK - Flag, if set turns off some printouts. This is not that useful
and may well disappear in later versions.
KILLSINGLE - Flag, as the obj files are read, scan for objects marked 'y' that
have zero or one valid positions. For any found, mark them
'n' and add "crud" to the id string.
OUTPUTS:
The file, check.lst, is written with the same information that is sent
to the screen to facilitate cleaning up any problems found.
