cey - change the equinox

cey epoch

All commands using celestial coordinates, including detect, ra_dec_to_pixel, and pixel_to_ra_dec, use the equinox epoch set with this command. The default equinox is that of the image. The value actually in use can be checked with command SHOW.

Example:

 
cey 2000                   ! Change the equinox year to 2000
