Scripts

There are a number of command-line scripts that come with PyPulse for convenience. More to come!

fitsheader_to_txt

Prints out the PSRFITS file header information

fits_to_npy

Converts the data within a PSRFITS file into a .npy file. No metadata are stored with the file.

pypav

Like PSRCHIVE’s pav routine, this will provide plots of a PSRFITS file.

partytricks

This will take a Par file and calculate the number of pulses from a given time. It can also calculate the eccentricity errors if available
