===== sp_tilt_import =====
Tilt Import : Imports per-particle defocus estimates from gCTF.

\\
===== Usage =====

Usage in command line:

  sp_tilt_import.py input_star_files output_directory --box_size=box_size --apix=pixel_size --verbosity=verbosity
  
  
\\
===== Typical usage =====

The purpose of sp_tilt_import.py is to: 

  : merge STAR files created by gCTF
  : convert coordinate files to .box format using sp_relion2sphire.py
  : extract particles using sp_window.py
  : generate SPHIRE particle stack using sp_relion2sphire.py

\\ __Standard usage__:

  sp_tilt_import.py input_star_files output_directory --box_size=box_size

\\ __Additional parameters__:

  sp_tilt_import.py input_star_files output_directory --box_size=box_size --apix=pixel_size --verbosity=verbosity

Pixel size is purely cosmetic, for screen output. Verbosity affects the amount of text written the the screen/log file.

\\
===== Input =====
=== Main Parameters ===
  ; input_star_files : Set of STAR files written by gCTF, one for each micrograph. (default required string)
  ; output_directory : Directory where outputs will be written. (default required string)
  ; %%--%%box_size : Particle box size for extraction, in pixels. (default None)
  
\\
=== Advanced Parameters ===
  ; %%--%%apix : Angstroms per pixel, purely cosmetic, for screen output. (default 1.0)
  ; %%--%%verbosity : Controls how much information is written to screen (default 1)

\\
===== Output =====
  ; init_local.star : Merged STAR file from initial conversion from gCTF
  ; sphire_micrographs.txt : List of micrographs
  ; sphire_cter_partres.txt : CTF parameters for each micrograph, in CTER partres format
  ; Coordinates/*.box : Coordinates in box format, one for each micrograph
  ; Rebox/*.rbx : Rebox files, one for each micrograph
  ; Particles/*.mrcs : Particle stacks, one for each micrographs
  ; bdb:sphire_stack : SPHIRE combined particle BDB stack
  ; all_local.star : Merged STAR file following extraction
  ; ctf_params.txt : CTF parameters for each particle
