[AstroPy] Moving Ahead with Raw Image Conversion

[Wayne Watson]

I've pretty much gotten my 640x480 1 byte, "raw" image under control 
within Python Image and Python file use. I wrote a file of 307200 bytes 
in bytes, byte representation of characters. I couldn't see anything 
within pyfits or numpy that would help me do that. Now I believe I'm in 
a position to use pyfits to create a fits format file. The next step is 
to arrange the image (data) into a 640x480 array. I can do that in 
python, but would like to know how it can be done in numpy, for the 
experience. The IDA tutorial talks to making arrays, but I do not see 
where they work with creating an array with fresh data. Once that's 
done, then I should be able to work out from a reading of page 10 in the 
pyfits manual.
