// <etymology>
//  This class parses through a FITS image and stores essential information
//  for each extension.
// </etymology>

// <synopsis>
// The class parses through a FITS image and extracts information
// on its extensions, e.g. the extension name and the extension version.
// It is possible to identify a certain extension and to get the its
// extension index.
//
// It is also explored whether some of the FITS extensions can be
// loaded as a quality image (data + error + mask).
// </synopsis>

// <example>
// <srcblock>
//    FITSImgParser fitsImg("in.fits");
//    uInt numHDU    = fitsImg.get_numhdu();                // get the total number of HDU's
//    uInt firstdata = fitsImg.get_firstdata_index();       // get the first HDU with data
//    String allExts = fitsImg.get_extlist_string(String("\n"));  // get a string representation of all extensions
//    String hasQual = fitsImg.has_qualityimg();            // check whether some of the extensions form quality image
// </srcblock>
// </example>

// <motivation>
// Investigate and select FITS extensions
