NAME

ftdcmprmf - Decompress RMF to use non-variable-length FITS columns

USAGE

ftdcmprmf infile outfile

DESCRIPTION

FTDCMPRMF "uncompresses" an RMF. Response files may be compressed using FTCMPRMF, CMPRMF or other standard tools, which removes zero or near-zero values. The result has variable-length columns which reduces file size but may make the file more difficult to read with simple readers. FTDCMPRMF "decompresses" the file so that no variable-length columns are used.

PARAMETERS

infile [filename]
The name of the input FITS RMF file.

outfile [filename]
The name of the output FITS RMF file.

clobber [bool]
If clobber = yes then overwrite the output files if a file of the appropriate name already exists.
