[AstroPy] import problem (matplotlib ? numpy ?) on Mac Intel, python 2.6

[Jean-Baptiste Marquette]

Hi Thomas,

AtPy looks great. My only concern with starjava was to use stilts functionalities for managing ascii tables and coordinates transformations from degrees to sexagesimal and reverse. But I guess that AtPy deals with headers having a leading "#" and names of columns, like

# id            ra_min       ra_max         dec_min      dec_max

and that pywcs can do transformations. So I can switch to pure python scripts.

Cheers,
JB
