SYNOPSIS

       esorex xsh_lingain [OPTIONS] FILE.sof

DESCRIPTION

       This recipe computes detector linearity coefficients and gain Input Frames :
         arm = UVB-VIS:
         - A set of n RAW linearity frames (Format=RAW, n >=8, Tag = LINEARITY_arm_ON)
         - A set of n RAW bias frames (Format=RAW, n >=1, Tag = LINEARITY_arm_OFF)
         arm = NIR:
         - A set of n RAW linearity on frames (Format=RAW, n >=8, Tag = LINEARITY_arm_ON)
         - A set of n RAW linearity off frames (Format=RAW, n >=8, Tag = LINEARITY_arm_OFF)
         - [OPTIONAL] a static bad pixel map (PRO.CATG=BP_MAP_RP_arm)
         Note: on and off frames are taken in pairs sequence: OFF-ON-ON-OFF,
         at least 16 frames.
