Introduction
------------
Converts CGITest Eclipse camera tracking files to Nuke .chan camera files.
The `Eclipse`_ camera system is a vehicle (usually helicopter) mounted
camera system that offers stability and camera tracking to film & tv
photography.
CGITest is the provided application to write out the tracking data when the
Eclipse system is running.
Usage
-----
To convert a CGITest generated Eclipse camera tracking file in ASCII `.txt`
format to a Nuke `.chan` file, all you need to do is supply a file to convert,
and optionally the destination directory to place the converted file.::
$ cgitest_convert CameraOn-1-cgiLog-141105-121524.txt -d ./chan_files/
If you wish to offset the frame of the resulting frame range, you can
provide a `-f` argument:::
$ cgitest_convert CameraOn-1-cgiLog-141105-121524.txt -f 1001
The default is 1
Installation
------------
Installing is as simple as using pip:::
