Pixinsight Scripts

Script Installation

1. In the dowloaded .zip file there is a folder called "ScriptName", place this unzipped folder and its contents in your /src/scripts folder. (Do not place the contents of the "ScriptName" folder directly in to /src/scripts but rather ensure that it is inside the scripts folder in a sub-folder called ScriptName). Refere to the specific script download page for the exact name of the "ScriptName".
2. In PixInsight select "Script" menu >"Feature Scripts...".
3. Click the "Add" button from the "Feature Scripts" dialog. Make sure the /src folder is selected and click "OK".
4. The message "1 additional script(s) were found on directory ..." will be displayed, click "OK" and then "Done".
5. The "ScriptName" script should now appear under the "Script" menu >"ScriptCategory" >"ScriptName". Refere to the specific script download page for the exact names of the "ScriptName" and "ScriptCategory".

Documentation Installation (Optional)

1. In the dowloaded .zip file there is a folder called "pidoc", copy this unzipped folder to a temporary location. If the folder is not present then documentation for this script is not available.
2. In PixInsight select "Script" menu >"Development" > "Documentation Compiler".
3. Click "Add Files" and browse to the temporary "pidoc" folder that was created in step 1) above.
4. Choose the "ScriptName.pidoc" file and click "Open" to add it to the "PIDoc Source Files" list.
5. Click the "Run" button.
6. Click "No" when asked if you want to perform another compilation.
7. If all went well then the console should display "PIDocCompiler: 1 succeeded, 0 failed, 0 warning(s)".
8. The documentation can be read by clicking the "Documentation" button at the bottom left of the "ScriptName" dialog, or by finding it in the "Process Explorer" under "ScriptCategory" >"ScriptName".
