Howdy! I just wanted to voice my agreement with this statment by Erin Sheldon:

Sometimes a['name'], sometimes a.field('name'). I vastly prefer the first
version; it has become my favored way of dealing with my FITS and ASCII
data. But using the bracket notation sometimes gives an error, and I
haven't quite figured out what the circumstances are.
Also, "for name in a.dtype.fields:" or "for name in a.fields:" would be
very, very handy.
Could this sort of thing get put in before the beta (or is it already in,
and I missed the boat, again?).
Thanks
John
