Fix output formatting in summary file #51

Closed pscicluna closed 4 years ago

pscicluna commented 7 years ago

Sometimes the output will overflow the format specifier in the summary file. We can always just expand the width, but it would be nice to have a better way that gets around this (e.g. by fixing the precision and/or rounding off I guess).

This format overflow has been an occasional pain for a really long time. I've now implemented FITS output in v2.3, which sidesteps this problem completely. Plain text output is still available and the problem is not fixed, but I am planning to remove text output eventually and only have FITS output, so I'm closing this.
