NAME

       flipx - Flip x axis in a FITS image

SYNOPSIS

       flipx <input images>

DESCRIPTION

       This  is  an  example  use  of the qfits library. This program expects a list of FITS file
       names in input. For each input file, it will flip the image contained  in  the  main  data
       section in the X direction, i.e. pixel (i,j) is swapped with pixel (lx-i, j).

       The  pixel  loading  mechanism  is  independent from endian-ness of the local host or FITS
       pixel type. This program offers a good overview  of  how  to  use  qfits  for  pixel-level
       operations.

OPTIONS

       None.

FILES

       Input files shall all comply with FITS format.

BUGS

       Notice  that  this program does not support cubes or image extensions, but could be easily
       extended to support that case.
