the background analysis region from the source region.<br />
* A new parameter ’nullborder’ will remove sources which touch the<br />
border of the image (default = "NO")<br />
* A new parameter ’psfshape’ used to select either the GAUSSIAN or<br />
PYRAMID shapes (default="PYRAMID").<br />
* A new parameter ’bkgfit’. When set to true, the background of<br />
each source is fitted individually.<br />
* More flexible control over which iamge keywords are copied to the<br />
output catalog table (new ’keepkeywords’ parameter).<br />
* Some optimizations and robustifications.<br />
* Some memory leaks were plugged (thanks to Valgrind).<br />
batclean<br />
* BUG FIX that was causing the code to crash when there were catalog<br />
sources below the threshold for cleaning (’cleansnr’ parameter).<br />
batdrmgen<br />
* INTERFACE CHANGE: New parameter ’hkfile’ is an "ask" parameter.<br />
This should be the name of a DAP housekeeping file. NONE is<br />
allowed, and then default values for the bias voltages and<br />
electronics threshold settings are used (using the new "hv_def" and<br />
"vthr_def" parameters).<br />
* <strong>The</strong> names of the calibration files used to generate the response<br />
file are now written to keywords in the response file headers.<br />
batfftimage<br />
* BUG FIX for when negative right ascension was being reported in<br />
the WCS keywords.<br />
* New keyword in output FLUXMETH = ’WEIGHTED’ describes the flux<br />
extraction technique.<br />
* New keywords APERTURE and BTELDEF describe which calibration<br />
files were used to make the image.<br />
* <strong>The</strong> task now copies other non-image extensions to the output file<br />
(such as GTIs and EBOUNDs) if the new parameter copyall="YES".<br />
* A unique EXTNAME keyword is written to each output extension.<br />
* It is now possible to say pcodemap=APPEND_LAST or APPEND_ALL and<br />
the partial coding maps will be appended to the output file.<br />
* Fix memory leaks.<br />
batmasktaglc<br />
* BUG FIX Corrected code so that no rows are written to the RATE<br />
extension when either (a) there are counts in one of the input<br />
rate files, but not the other, or (b) when there is not a valid<br />
mask weight map covering the time period. <strong>The</strong> times in the GTI<br />
extension indicate the valid times according to these criteria.<br />
* Added check to make sure that the catalog number of the mask<br />
weight map matches that of the rate file.
