NAME

       dst2ascii - Convert DST record files to CSV

SYNOPSIS

       dst2ascii
       dst2ascii dst_directory

DESCRIPTION

       This  is  a  small  utility  to  convert  the  binary record file produced when performing
       distance calculations to an ASCII file for further analysis.
       Distance calculations are triggered by performing by using the filenames  voacapd.dat  and
       voacapd.out for voacap input/output files. e.g.
       voacapl ~/itshfbc voacapd.dat voacapd.output

OPTIONS

       dst_directory
              The  location  of the .dst file and corresponding .idx file.  The output ASCII file
              is saved in this directory.  If  this  parameter  is  not  specified,  the  current
              working directory will be used.

EXAMPLES

       dst2ascii
       Creates  an  ASCII  file  (voacapd.asc)  using  the  values  found  in  the voacap.dst and
       voacapd.idx files located in the current working directory.
       dst2ascii my_directory
       Creates an ASCII file (my_directory/voacapd.asc) using the values found in the  voacap.dst
       and voacapd.idx files located in the directory 'my_directory'.

FILES

       voacapd.dst voacapd.idx
              dst2ascii requires access to the .dst and corresponding index (.idx) files to run.

ENVIRONMENT

       dst2ascii does not make use of any environment variables.
