Description-en: Command line tool to manipulate ASDF scientific data files
ASDF (Advanced Scientific Data Format) is a proposed
next generation interchange format for scientific data. ASDF aims to
exist in the same middle ground that made FITS so successful, by
being a hybrid text and binary format: containing human editable
metadata for interchange, and raw binary data that is fast to load
and use. Unlike FITS, the metadata is highly structured and is
designed up-front for extensibility.
.
This package contains the asdf command line tool.
