mRotate - Rotate a FITS image by an arbitrary angle

       in.fits
              Input FITS image.

       out.fits
              Path to output (rotated) FITS image.

       ra dec xsize
              Center location and width (in degrees) of output image - optional.  By default, entire input image
              area will be included in output image.

       ysize  Height (in degrees) of output image, if a new center location and width are provided.  Optional  -
              defaults to xsize.

       The drizzle algorithm has been implemented but has not been tested in this release.

       If a header template contains carriage returns (i.e., created/modified on a Windows machine), the cfitsio
       library will be unable to read it properly, resulting in the  error:  [struct  stat="ERROR",  status=207,
       msg="illegal character in keyword"]

       It  is  best  for  the  background  correction  algorithms  if  the area described in the header template
       completely encloses all of the input images in their entirety. If parts of input images are "chopped off"
       by the header template, the background correction will be affected. We  recommend  you  use  an  expanded
       header  for  the  reprojection  and background modeling steps, returning to the originally desired header
       size for the final coaddition. The default background matching  assumes  that  there  are  no  non-linear
       background  variations  in  the individual images (and therefore in the overlap differences). If there is
       any uncertainty in this regard, it is safer to turn on the "level only"  background  matching  (the  "-l"
       flag in mBgModel.

       Rotates  a  FITS  image  by an arbitrary angle.  This module is meant for quick-look only; it is not flux
       conserving.

       -d level
              Print out additional debugging information (level can be 1-3)

       -s statusfile
              Output and errors are written to statusfile instead of stdout.

       -r rotang
              Provide an angle (in degrees) to rotate the image.

[structstat="OK"]

       Output  file  will  contain  the  same  image as the input file, but rotated by rotang degrees.  If a new
       center location and width were provided, the output image will be the "subimage" covering that area.
