pro ftaddcol,h,tab,name,idltype,tform,tunit,tscal,tzero,tnull ;+ ; NAME: ; FTADDCOL ; PURPOSE: ; Routine to add a field to a FITS ASCII table ; ; CALLING SEQUENCE: ; ftaddcol, h, tab, name, idltype, [ tform, tunit, tscal, tzero, tnull ] ; ; INPUTS: ; h - FITS table header. It will be updated as appropriate ; tab - FITS table array. Number of columns will be increased if ; neccessary. ; name - field name, scalar string ; idltype - idl data type (as returned by SIZE function) for field, ; For string data (type=7) use minus the string length. ; ; OPTIONAL INPUTS: ; tform - format specification 'qww.dd' where q = A, I, E, or D ; tunit - string giving physical units for the column. ; tscal - scale factor ; tzero - zero point for field ; tnull - null value for field ; ; Use '' as the value of tform,tunit,tscal,tzero,tnull if you want ; the default or no specification of them in the table header. ; ; OUTPUTS: ; h,tab - updated to allow new column of data ; ; PROCEDURES USED: ; FTINFO, FTSIZE, GETTOK(), SXADDPAR ; HISTORY: ; version 1 D.
