The function of SSMERGE is purely to collect source search results files
together in to one output file, for example,
> SSMERGE ps_%%%% merged_ps \
SSMERGE Version 1.5-0
Will merge 23 input files
Merging files 1 to 10
Merging files 11 to 20
Merging files 21 to 23
It is important to realise what this application does not do,
- It does not remove multiple detections of the same source. All
sources in all the input files appear in the output file.
- It cannot accept SSDS with field errors of different forms in
the input files.
- Only those fields present in all inputs appear in the output.
SSMERGE is especially useful for collating source search runs produced
as a result of simulation runs, where many SSDS are likely to be
produced.
