+ SExtractor (Source Extractor) is a program that builds a catalogue of
+ objects from an astronomical image. Although it is particularly
+ oriented towards reduction of large scale galaxy-survey data, it
+ performs rather well on moderately crowded star fields. It has the
+ ability to automatically separate stars and galaxy using neural
+ networks.
