In general I would discourage users from obtaining 2nd hand copies of the
FITSIO software because one may not get the latest version.  As a case in
point, the new version 3.01 of FITSIO, which fixes a relatively minor bug,
was released just last Friday.  Currently there a 2 ways to receive the 
most recent version of FITSIO:

1) by anonymous ftp from  tetra.gsfc.nasa.gov  in subdirectory pub/fitsio3

2) over the SPAN network (e.g., with DECNET copy) from

      NDADSA::HEASARC:[EXOSAT.XANADU.FITSIO.VERSION3]

If any users have difficulty accessing the files by either of these
methods, then they should send me a message.
