 Rejecting neighbors in crowded star fields

Hi,I've been running IRAF on some Gemini South image data taken in the
R-band in May 20005. I'm interested in weak lensing and hence require
uncontaminated, isolated objects for my analyses.My approach to this to date has been rather clumsy: I run daoedit and
daofind on my images to construct and object list. Then, I manually
inspect a bright subset of these stars using pstselect and psf,
rejecting those stars whose psfs look visually contaminated. This procedure is not automated and hence not sustainable for the
piepline analysis I had envisioned. At the least, it would be useful if
stars rejected when running psf were excised from the .coo list
automatically. Any thoughts or suggestions on how to to a better job of
rejecting close neighbors?Sincerely,Steve - LSST
