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.
