FITS header info and format
« on: 2019 October 01 14:56:03 »
What format and info is PI and the BPP script looking for when a file is loaded? Can someone post a few examples of the file names and structures they are using?

A thread is open on the Sharpcap board about this and the author of SharpCap asked what FITs header PI looks for. I'm hoping to get this added to a future release of SC.

that's the original SBIG fits header keyword extension document from 2003
