Rss Recent releases

Changes: A check for $args{File} was added.

Changes: Support for Multi-Extension FITS (MEF) files and regexp support were added, as well as exact matching for KEYWORD queries such as replacebyname() and removebyname(). The tied interface to use slash-based comment parsing was updated. Various bugfixes were made.

Changes: Low-level support for sub-headers, major improvements to the tied interface, and some support for read-only access to ESO HIERARCH hierarchical keywords.

Changes: Support has been added for reading headers from GSD files, and for read only access to FITS HDUs. The module now uses the Astro::FITS::CFITSIO module for FITS access rather than the obsolete CFITSIO module.

Changes: This release adds support for .HEADER HDS containers, and for stringification overloading in the Header object.
