write.fitskey: Write FITS Header Keywords
In astro: Astronomy Functions, Tools and Routines

Description Usage Arguments Details Author(s) See Also

The mid-level function 'write.fitskey' allows FITS header keywords to be written directly from R.

1	write.fitskey(key, value, file, comment = "", hdu = 1)

`key`	header keyword (may be a vector)
`value`	header value (may be a vector)
`file`	file name
`comment`	header comments (may be a vector)
`hdu`	header and data unit to be written to

The mid-level function 'write.fitskey' is a wrapper around 'read.fits' and 'write.fits', and provides a shortcut to updating individual keywords of an already existent FITS file.
