[News] pyfits

[Kor G. Begeman]

Dear all,

after some tests we have decided to adopt pyfits as an interface to FITS 
formatted files for the AstroWise environment. Pyfits is pure Python and 
uses numarray which is already adopted for the AstroWise environment.

For more information about pyfits, see

Cheers,


Kor
