[fitsbits] CTYPEx in SDFITS

[Tom Kuiper]

Dear all,

I ran a draft SDFITS-format file through the FITS File Verifier at 
http://fits.gsfc.nasa.gov/fits_verify.html and I got errors for having 
CTYPE1 ... CTYPE4 in the extension header.  If I have understood the 
SDFITS convention, then it is allowed to have CTYPEx as a header keyword 
while the corresponding CRVALx and CRPIXx are column names.  So who is 
right?

My file is accepted by ASAP so I'm not too worried.  I'm just curious.

Regards

Tom
