A FITS Library Package

The Flexible Image Transport System (FITS) Library Package for Linux, and Mac OS X consists of a collection of high and low level routines to carry out various useful functions associated with FITS image files. Besides the source code for the library, a demonstration program, “testfits”, which illustrates the library’s capabilities and shows how to code the subroutines into your own customized applications, is included. Source code of subroutines from the MIIPS Plot Package and subroutines to display images on Enhanced SAOimage are included as well. The source code, executables, and documentation for Linux and Mac OS X are available at http://www.chara.gsu.edu/ gudehus/fits library package.html.
