[AstroPy] Executable Script fitsheader

[Sotiria Fotopoulou]

Hi Jim,

your command works fine for me.
However, if you are in pinch and since it seems to work for a single file,
you could consider using a bash for loop like the following:
for FILE in *fits; do fitsheader --table ascii.csv $FILE >>
keywords.csv;done

Cheers,
Sotiria
