We need a "Don't Make Me Think" policy with the FITS format. As a
programmer, even after reading the documentation on the FITS format, I still
struggle with the header portion of the file. How does one know how many
2880 byte chunks preceed the image data???? Like the ARF files we use
currently at my work (defense) the format is overly complex and poorly
thought out.
