Re: problems reading fits file

[Poulette Poulette]

Dear Ben,

I tried to install the fits package from http://octave.sourceforge.net/fits/

I suppose there are some PATH problems but don't know the way to solve them.

I have libcfitsio well installed, I often use it.

Thanks for your message.

Macports does not yet have a port for the fits package.

I've  not tried to install the fits package myself, but I noticed that it requires libcfitsio.  Did you install the macports "cfitsio" package before trying to install the fits package?

    sudo port install cfitsio
