Hi, all!

I was wondering if:
1.- Does exists any script or something that simulate what Geomap and/or
Geotrans do?
2.- Is anybody intrested to use something like this?

I'm a computer science student not related in any kind to astronomy, but
once i saw all the work that people that works with geomap have to do to
analyse data, and i was wondering if someone is intrested to help me to
develp a script that can emulate what Iraf's tools does.

The idea that i've got is to develop something that works in python like:

#something that handles the .coo files and creates the arrays that geomap
will recive has inputs
xyref,xyin,n=data.mkMatrix('../Data/xy4.coo')
#something that emulate geomapy
data2=gm.CoordTransform(xyref,xyin)
func=data2.doFit()
import pyfits as pf
g1=pf.getdata('../../../S20080812S0052_grid.fits',2)
#something that emulate what geotran does and show the transformed image
g2=func(g1)

well, hope not to bother to anyone and if someone is intrested i will be
really happy to work with.

PS: Sorry about my english is not really good. I'm spanish speaker
