The time dubbed “real soon now” has arrived: it has been sent to Vinay to be included on the
CHASC page. If you alter it, please let me know so I can try to incorporate changes into my
base code…

Vinay offered to host it on the CHASC page; I will send him a tarball "real soon now." It is pretty bare-bones but has at least basic image and binary table read-in capabilities. pef Hi,

I was going to write it myself, but since you already have it, would you mind sharing it? I could testdrive it, improve it (if needed) and eventually it could be submitted to CRAN, or to the authors of the foreing package. Regards!

Unfortunately, at this moment, I couldn't make it run because my R is running on a 64 bit machine. Once it works, it'll be very useful for both astronomers and statisticians, particularly the latter who wish to try their statistics to new data sets. I tried RFITS.
