+.SH "NAME"
+FunImageGet \- get an image or image section
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
+.Vb 1
+\& #include <funtools.h>
+.Ve

+.Vb 1
+\& void *FunImageGet(Fun fun, void *buf, char *plist)
+.Ve
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+The \fB\f(BIFunImageGet()\fB\fR routine returns an binned image array of the
+specified section of a Funtools data file. If the input data are
+already of type image, the array is generated by extracting the
+specified image section and then binning it according to the specified
+bin factor. If the input data are contained in a binary table or raw
+event file, the rows are binned on the columns specified by the
+\&\fBbincols=\fR keyword (using appropriate default columns as
+necessary), after which the image section and bin factors are
+applied. In both cases, the data is automatically converted from \s-1FITS\s0
+to native format, if necessary.
+.PP
+The first argument is the Funtools handle returned by
+\&\fIFunOpen()\fR. The second \fBbuf\fR
+argument is a pointer to a data buffer to fill. If \s-1NULL\s0 is specified,
+FunImageGet will allocate a buffer of the appropriate size. Generally
+speaking, you always want Funtools to allocate the buffer because
+the image dimensions will be determined by
+Funtools image sectioning
+on the command line.
+.PP
+The third \fBplist\fR (i.e., parameter list) argument is a string
+containing one or more comma-delimited \fBkeyword=value\fR
+parameters. It can be used to specify the return data type using the
+\&\fBbitpix=\fR keyword. If no such keyword is specified in the plist
+string, the data type of the returned image is the same as the data type
+of the original input file, or is of type int for \s-1FITS\s0 binary tables.
+.PP
+If the \fBbitpix=\fR keyword is supplied in the plist string, the data
+type of the returned image will be one of the supported \s-1FITS\s0 image
+data types:
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+8 unsigned char
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+16 short
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+32 int
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+\&\-32 float
+.IP "\(bu" 4
+\&\-64 double
+.PP
+For example:
+.PP
+.Vb 4
+\& void *buf;
+\& /* extract data section into an image buffer */
+\& if( !(buf = FunImageGet(fun, NULL, NULL)) )
+\& gerror(stderr, "could not FunImageGet: %s\en", iname);
+.Ve
+.PP
+will allocate buf and retrieve the image in the file data format. In
+this case, you will have to determine the data type (using the
+\&\s-1FUN_SECT_BITPIX\s0 value in the
+\&\fIFunInfoGet()\fR
+routine)
+and then use a switch statement to process each data type:
+.PP
+.Vb 17
+\& int bitpix;
+\& void *buf;
+\& unsigned char *cbuf;
+\& short *sbuf;
+\& int *ibuf;
+\& ...
+\& buf = FunImageGet(fun, NULL, NULL);
+\& FunInfoGet(fun, FUN_SECT_BITPIX, &bitpix, 0);
+\& /* set appropriate data type buffer to point to image buffer */
+\& switch(bitpix){
+\& case 8:
+\& cbuf = (unsigned char *)buf; break;
+\& case 16:
+\& sbuf = (short *)buf; break;
+\& case 32:
+\& ibuf = (int *)buf; break;
+\& ...
+.Ve
+.PP
+See the
+imblank example code
+for more details on how to process an image when the data type is not
+specified beforehand.
+.PP
+It often is easier to specify the data type directly:
+.PP
+.Vb 4
+\& double *buf;
+\& /* extract data section into a double image buffer */
+\& if( !(buf = FunImageGet(fun, NULL, "bitpix=-64")) )
+\& gerror(stderr, "could not FunImageGet: %s\en", iname);
+.Ve
+.PP
+will extract the image while converting to type double.
+.PP
+On success, a pointer to the image buffer is returned. (This will be
+the same as the second argument, if \s-1NULL\s0 is not passed to the latter.)
+On error, \s-1NULL\s0 is returned.
+.PP
+In summary, to retrieve image or row data into a binned image, you simply
+call \fIFunOpen()\fR followed by
+\&\fIFunImageGet()\fR. Generally, you
+then will want to call
+\&\fIFunInfoGet()\fR
+to retrieve the
+axis dimensions (and data type) of the section you are processing
+(so as to take account of sectioning and blocking of the original data):
+.PP
+.Vb 4
+\& double *buf;
+\& int i, j;
+\& int dim1, dim2;
+\& ... other declarations, etc.
+.Ve
+.PP
+.Vb 3
+\& /* open the input FITS file */
+\& if( !(fun = FunOpen(argv[1], "rc", NULL)) )
+\& gerror(stderr, "could not FunOpen input file: %s\en", argv[1]);
+.Ve
+.PP
+.Vb 3
+\& /* extract and bin the data section into a double float image buffer */
+\& if( !(buf = FunImageGet(fun, NULL, "bitpix=-64")) )
+\& gerror(stderr, "could not FunImageGet: %s\en", argv[1]);
+.Ve
+.PP
+.Vb 2
+\& /* get dimension information from funtools structure */
+\& FunInfoGet(fun, FUN_SECT_DIM1, &dim1, FUN_SECT_DIM2, &dim2, 0);
+.Ve
+.PP
+.Vb 4
+\& /* loop through pixels and reset values below limit to value */
+\& for(i=0; i<dim1*dim2; i++){
+\& if( buf[i] <= blimit ) buf[i] = bvalue;
+\& }
+.Ve
+.PP
+Another useful plist string value is \*(L"mask=all\*(R", which returns an
+image populated with regions id values. Image pixels within a region
+will contain the associated region id (region values start at 1), and
+otherwise will contain a 0 value. Thus, the returned image is a
+region mask which can be used to process the image data (which
+presumably is retrieved by a separate call to FunImageGet) pixel by
+pixel.
+.PP
+If a \s-1FITS\s0 binary table or a non-FITS raw event file is being binned
+into an image, it is necessary to specify the two columns that will be
+used in the 2D binning. This usually is done on the command line
+using the \fBbincols=(x,y)\fR keyword:
+.PP
+.Vb 1
+\& funcnts "foo.ev[EVENTS,bincols=(detx,dety)]"
+.Ve
+.PP
+The full form of the \fBbincols=\fR specifier is:
+.PP
+.Vb 1
+\& bincols=([xname[:tlmin[:tlmax:[binsiz]]]],[yname[:tlmin[:tlmax[:binsiz]]]])
+.Ve
+.PP
+where the tlmin, tlmax, and binsiz specifiers determine the image binning
+dimensions:
+.PP
+.Vb 2
+\& dim = (tlmax - tlmin)/binsiz (floating point data)
+\& dim = (tlmax - tlmin)/binsiz + 1 (integer data)
+.Ve
+.PP
+These tlmin, tlmax, and binsiz specifiers can be omitted if \s-1TLMIN\s0,
+\&\s-1TLMAX\s0, and \s-1TDBIN\s0 header parameters (respectively) are present in the
+\&\s-1FITS\s0 binary table header for the column in question. Note that if
+only one parameter is specified, it is assumed to be tlmax, and tlmin
+defaults to 1. If two parameters are specified, they are assumed to be
+tlmin and tlmax.
+.PP
+If \fBbincols\fR is not specified on the command line, Funtools tries
+to use appropriate defaults: it looks for the environment variable
+\&\s-1FITS_BINCOLS\s0 (or \s-1FITS_BINKEY\s0). Then it looks for the Chandra
+parameters \s-1CPREF\s0 (or \s-1PREFX\s0) in the \s-1FITS\s0 binary table header. Failing
+this, it looks for columns named \*(L"X\*(R" and \*(L"Y\*(R" and if these are not
+found, it looks for columns containing the characters \*(L"X\*(R" and \*(L"Y\*(R".
