NAME ghkcurve - Extract light curve from ASCA GIS housekeeping file. This program constructs a light curve file from a specified monitor count in the ASCA GIS housekeeping files. The name of the output light curve file. Points at other bit rates will be rejected. This is because short telemetry gaps or corruptions, which are excluded from the science-file GTIs, may not be excluded in the mkf file if they are smaller than one mkf file bin length.
ASCA time is assumed.
This version of ghkcurve resets the basis of the timesteps after a bitrate change, after a telemetry loss flag, or when starting a new GTI, so the lightcurve entries won't always be separated by a multiple of the integration rate.
