Formats that cannot be handled by the existing hooks in the read() function can be accomodated by modifying the underlying class methods as needed.asciitable is a software that can read a wide range of ASCII table formats via built-in Extension Reader Classes: * Basic: basic table with customizable delimiters and header configurations * Cds: CDS format table (also Vizier and ApJ machine readable tables) * CommentedHeader: column names given in a line that begins with the comment character * Daophot: table from the IRAF DAOphot package * Ipac: IPAC format table * NoHeader: basic table with no header where columns are auto-named * Rdb: tab-separated values with an extra line after the column definition line * Tab: tab-separated values Requirements: · Python
