CFITSIO Interface Library CFITSIO is a library of ANSI C routines for reading and writing FITS format data files. ... The CFITSIO library is built on Unix systems by typing: > ./configure [--prefix=/target/installation/path] > make (or 'make shared') > make install (this step is optional) at the operating system prompt. The configure command customizes the Makefile for the particular system, then the `make' command compiles the source files and builds the library. ...

... Columns can be re-named, added, or deleted; various operations can be performed on column contents, and the results stored in a new column; and so on. ... When you create a table from an ASCII file, the width of the table column is (by default) the width of the field in the original *.dat file. ... You can avoid this problem by specifying a width wider than the original ASCII field by using (say) C*32 instead of just C for the column in the format file, when you create the table. ...
