FTS1_HDLOG

Outputs the FITS header cards to an ASCII file

Description:

This is a server routine for FITSIN. It packages up the operations required to write the FITS header cards (80-character) into an ASCII file. A heading is also written giving the file and sub-file numbers. The maximum record length of the ASCII file supported by this routine is 132 characters. The minimum is 80 characters—an error is reported if it is smaller than 80.

The file name appears in the caption before the headers. It may be truncated if it is longer than the file recordsize less 30 characters. Truncation occurs at the start of the name and is designated via an ellipsis.

Invocation

CALL FTS1_HDLOG( HEADER, FD, CFN, SUBFIL, NHEADS, HDNUM, STATUS )

Arguments

HEADER( ∗ ) = CHARACTER ∗ 80 (Given)
The FITS headers in 80-character records.
FD = INTEGER (Given)
The file descriptor for the log file.
CFN = CHARACTER ∗ ( ∗ ) (Given)
The input filename or tape file number of the FITS file being processed.
SUBFIL = INTEGER (Given)
The number of the sub-file/extension within the current FITS file being processed.
NHEADS = INTEGER (Given)
The number of header sections in the sub-file. This includes dummy FITS header sections.
HDNUM( ∗ ) = INTEGER (Given)
The number of header cards within each header in the sub-file.
STATUS = INTEGER (Given and Returned)
