program is now available.  Version 1.26 implements incremental

WCSTools 1.26 is a suite of tools which manipulate astronomical
catalogs and utilize the world coordinate information in FITS and
IRAF image headers.  Support for the ACT catalog and catalog searches
from files of centers have been added, among other things.  It is
hoped that the next release will support the final FITS WCS standard.
