Description
This program will import fits (Flexible Image Transport System) files into
Isis format. Only simple fits files are accepted. Extensions are not
support and files with no initial data, NAXIS = 0 , implying extensions with
data, are not supported either. Some common header data is transfered to
Isis labels. Primary image data is transfered completely and reliably.
