If DATA is ; undefined or a scalar, then only the FITS header (which ; must have NAXIS = 0) will be written to disk ; ; OPTIONAL INPUT: ; HEADER = String array containing the header for the FITS file. ; If variable HEADER is not given, the program will generate ; a minimal FITS header. ; ; OPTIONAL INPUT KEYWORD: ; /APPEND - If this keyword is set then the supplied header and data ; array are assumed to be an extension and are appended onto ; the end of an existing FITS file. If the file does not ; exist, then WRITEFITS will create one with a minimal primary ; header (and /EXTEND keyword) and then append the supplied ; extension header and array. Note that the primary ; header in an existing file must already have an EXTEND ; keyword to indicate the presence of an FITS extension. ; /COMPRESS - If this keyword is set, then the FITS file is written as ; a gzip compressed file. An extension '.gz' is appended to ; to the file name if it does not already exist. The /COMPRESS ; option is incompatible with the /APPEND option. ; /Checksum - If set, then the CHECKSUM keywords to monitor data integrity ; will be included in the FITS header. For more info, see ; http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/heasarc/fits/checksum.html ; NaNvalue - Value in the data array which represents missing pixels. ; This keyword is only used when missing pixels are not ; represented by NaN values in the input array. ; OUTPUTS: ; None ; ; RESTRICTIONS: ; (1) It recommended that BSCALE and BZERO not be used (or set equal ; to 1. and 0) with REAL*4 or REAL*8 data. ; (2) WRITEFITS will remove any group parameters from the FITS header ; ; EXAMPLE: ; Write a randomn 50 x 50 array as a FITS file creating a minimal header. ; ; IDL> im = randomn(seed, 50, 50) ;Create array ; IDL> writefits, 'test', im ;Write to a FITS file "test" ; ; PROCEDURES USED: ; CHECK_FITS, FITS_ADD_CHECKSUM, MKHDR, MRD_HREAD, SXDELPAR, SXADDPAR, ; SXPAR() ; ; MODIFICATION HISTORY: ; WRITTEN, Jim Wofford, January, 29 1989 ; Added call to IS_IEEE_BIG() W. Landsman Apr 96 ; Make sure SIMPLE is written in first line of header W. Landsman Jun 97 ; Use SYSTIME() instead of !STIME W. Landsman July 97 ; Create a default image extension header if needed W. Landsman June 98 ; Converted to IDL V5.0 W. Landsman June 98 ; Write unsigned data types W. Landsman December 1999 ; Update for IDL V5.3, add /COMPRESS keyword W. Landsman February 2000 ; Correct BZERO value for unsigned data W. Landsman July 2000 ; Eliminate duplication of input array if possible W. Landsman April 2001 ; Use FILE_SEARCH for V5.5 or later W. Landsman April 2002 ; Create the file if not already present and /APPEND is set ; W. Landsman September 2002 ; Proper call to MRD_HREAD if /APPEND is set W. Landsman December 2002 ; Added /CHECKSUM keyword W.
