objast: Written by Marc W. Buie, Lowell Observatory, 2002/04/07
astrom: 2002/04/06, MWB, WATCHOUT! I changed the program so that if you are using the twostar reduction, it will save the refstars AFTER the fit, thus excluding the ill-fitting objects from the saved set. This might be dangerous in some cases so make sure to do a /killref if redoing the solution where you think too many have been deleted. I have a suspicion that this will break some other case for the program but I can't see where right now. (Probably in cases where it takes a very long time to do the photometry on the fields stars in this program.) Also, added IGNORESRC keyword.
