galstar
=======


Setup and Build
===============

  ./configure --with-libpeyton=../libpeyton/optimized --optimized --prefix=`pwd`/staging
  make -j install

This will configure and build an optimized version of galstar in
./optimized and install it in directory ./staging linking against 
an optimized version of libpeyton from ../libpeyton/optimized

By the end of this demo, the following output has been produced:

  greg@greg-G53JW:~/projects/galstar/build$ ls ../output/test/
  DM_Ar_0.png  DM_Ar_1.txt  DM_Ar_3.txt  DM_hist.png  stats_1.dat  stats_3.dat

Input Files
==========

The --datafile option is used to pass a pencil-beam catalog of stellar magnitudes and errors. The format is:
  l	b
  u	g	r	i	z	u_err	g_err	r_err	i_err	z_err
  u	g	r	i	z	u_err	g_err	r_err	i_err	z_err
  ...
