v0.0.1

This is the first release 🎉 of the priwo package: a pure Python, low-dependency solution for reading in and writing out data from various pulsar data formats. The data formats currently supported are:

• sigproc headers
• presto metadata files (*.inf),
• presto time series data files (*.dat),
• sigproc time series data files (*.tim),
• presto frequency/power spectra data files (*.fft),
• presto folded data files (*.pfd),
• presto best profile data files (*.bestprof),
• presto polynomial coefficient data files (*.polycos).

The package provides simple functions for each data format, and outputs a dictionary with all the data and metadata. The data is read in as a n-dimensional numpy array. More formats (such as sigproc's filterbank files for frequency-time arrays, PSRFITS files for both fold and search modes, and so on) are on the way 😁 ! If you have any data formats in mind that you would like to see support for, do not hestitate to drop in to the discussions page for this very repository
