Hi Philippe,

A solution has been developed for the long string values issue in FITS 
headers.  I would prefer to wait until after I return from my vacation 
(mid-November) before I implement it, as it involves changing how the 
headers are handled in AWE.  Please let me know if this a problem for you.

Cheers,


-=John
