-This is the home web page for the file command:
+creating a new camera:
 
-  https://www.darwinsys.com/file/
-
-Here is their github page.
-
-  https://github.com/file/file/tree/master/magic/Magdir
-
-I used this tool to download just the Magdir directory:
-
-  https://download-directory.github.io/
-
-For reasons unknown, several of the files in that directory raise errors when compiling
-the magic file.  Running this command generates a list of errors:
-
-  file -m Magdir -C
-
-I remove the files listed in the error messages:
-
- mkdir -p trash
- rsync -auv Magdir/ myMagdir/
- foreach f ( `file -m myMagdir -C | & awk -F, '{print $1}' | sort | uniq | grep myMagdir` )
-   mv $f trash/
- end
-
-Then compile this new directory: 
-
-  file -m myMagdir -C
-
-We can use the new magic file:
-
-  file -m myMagdir.mgc o60523g0045o.2132764.wrp.2688740.skycell.1566.004.pswarp.mdc
-
-Fortuitously, the "DOS/MBR boot sector" magic numbers are among these files which
-do not compile, specifically in Magdir/filesystems
-
-The new magic file (myMagdir.mgc) is rather large: 5.3MB.  
-
-Within the IPP, we use the command 'file' in order to distinguish compressed MDC files
-from uncompressed files.  For this purpose, we only need a magic file built using the
-file Magdir/compress:
-
-  cp myMagdir/compress .
-  file -m compress -C
-
-This yields 'compress.mgc'
-
-Unfortunately, the same magic file cannot be used by the binaries on both Ubuntu and Gentoo.
-
-So, to address the specific IPP issue, we need to install a different version of the
-file in some discoverable / defined location which depends on the build architecture.

+* add the camera to the CAMERAS list (ipp/ippconfig/ipprc.config)
+* create the camera directory (ipp/ippconfig/CAMERA)
+* copy example recipe files from a similar camera (eg, ipp/ippconfig/megacam)
+* copy Makefile.am from a similar camera (eg, ipp/ippconfig/megacam)
+* edit camera.config to describe your camera
+  - list the ccds and chips in FPA METADATA
+  - list the filters of interest (header name STR internal name)
+    give all varients used in the headers
+  - fix paths which refer to the original paths.
+* edit the format*.config files to match your camera:
+  - set up a rule to recognize the camera
+    - define keywords which will uniquely recognize your headers
+
