I'm trying to get a script to work, but
when it gets to the part where "ccdproc"
trims the biassec and performs the
"zerocor", the logfile starts growing
like crazy (it goes up to 4Gbs until
IRAF stops and says it can't open
logfile) while some tem...

In the manual I am using it says that
the reason one needs to trace is the
fact that the actual spectral line is

It appears that a number of programs use

Whereas IRAF expects:

OBJCTDEC = "+12:34:56.7"

IRAF will fail to correctly read the
former without flagging an error.
