Re: asttable --information hangs

[Mohammad Akhlaghi]

Hi Hilderic,

Thank you very much for reporting this bug.

Can you send the URL of "BSC5.fits"?

From a fast look in its main webpage (after an online search: 
http://tdc-www.harvard.edu/catalogs/bsc5.html). I couldn't find any FITS 
file to download.

Cheers,
Mohammad
