In edwardpmorris/FASTSpectra: Parse and radiometrically correct Ocean Optics spectra files

Description

Given the path to a folder of Ocean Optics SpectraSuite "text with header" files, ending in '*.txt', this function will parse all files returning a hyperSpec object that includes the spectra and metadata

Usage

read.txt.OceanOptics(files = "*.txt", label = list(spc = "DN (counts)"))

Arguments

# set path to data files
