FTS1_BLCAR

Determines whether or not the first card in a FITS record has a blank keyword

Description:

This routine is needed for UNIX portability, since the calling application only knows the pointer to the FITS record, and not the actual values. Hence a function is required.

Invocation

RESULT = FTS1_BLCAR( RECORD )

Arguments

RECORD( 36 ) = CHARACTER ∗ ( 80 ) (Given)
The FITS record to be tested.

Returned Value

FTS1_BLCAR = LOGICAL
If true, the first card image in RECORD has a blank keyword, i.e. characters 1 to 8 in the card image are blank.
