Data format conversion

As noted elsewhere the original spectral line data are written in GSD format. After processing by SPECX the output data, both spectrum datasets and maps, are in SDF format. For transmission to other sites it is possible to convert the data to either ASCII or FITS format via SPECX, if you don't want them in your native format.
