   Space Telescope Science Institute

   Synopsis

   that conform to the fits standard, by looking at
   the warnings that astropy generates and for certain
   keywrods in the header.

       usage: MefCheck.py [-np 8] [-all]  -dup_only Field ...

   Description
   -----------

   where

           -np 8 imples to run multiple threads, where each
               thread processes one field
           -all implies to do all fields in the DECam_MEF
               directory
           -dup_only just check for duplicate files in the MEF
