Elixir Configuration Data
+Mosastro uses the following Elixir configuration variables:
+
+- EXPTIME-KEYWORD : header keyword defining exposure time
+
- DATE-KEYWORD : header keyword defining the date
+
- DATE-MODE : mode for header date information: use a combination
+of Ys, Ms, Ds to specify order. If only 2 digits are specified for
+the year, numbers greater than 50 are assumed in the 1900s, less than
+in the 2000s. eg YYYY/MM/DD
+
- UT-KEYWORD : header keyword defining UT
+
- MJD-KEYWORD : header keyword defining MJD
+
- JD-KEYWORD : header keyword defining JD
+
+note that only one of the combination JD, MJD, or DATE/UT needs to be
+defined.
+
+
- ASTRO_REFCAT : desired astrometric reference catalog. allowed
+values are GSC, USNO, 2MASS, PTOLEMY, STONE.
+
+
- USNO_CDROM : directory where USNO data is stored
+
- STONE_DIR : location of the Stone et al reference data
+
- 2MASS_DIR : location of the 2MASS data
+
- CATDIR : location of the ptolemy data
+
- GSCDIR : location of the HST Guide Star Catalog
+
- GSCFILE : location of the GSC layout file (for GSC and ptolemy)
+
+note that 'ptolemy' refers to data using the DVO format. 2MASS data
+must be in a DVO format database.
+
+
- RADIUS : matching radius in arcsec to select reference stars
+
- SIGMA_LIM : exclude stars with formal error larger than this
+
+
- ZERO_PT : default zero point, nominally 25.0. don't set this to
+a 'real' zero point. it is used only for reference.
+
+
- INST_MAG_MIN : exclude stars brighter than this instrumental magnitude
+
- INST_MAG_MAX : exclude stars fainter than this instrumental magnitude
+
- INST_BRIGHT : use stars brighter than this value to measure
+systematic error limit.
