Create a new io_sdfits object and associate the indicated filename with it. If filename is a directory, the io_sdfits::set_project method is used and hence the contents of all sdfits files in that directory will be accessible through this single io object.

Returns

io_sdfits (line or cntm) object on success or -1 on failure

Parameters
filename in, optional string	. If the filename is not suppled, a graphical file chooser will be launched to allow the user to select one.

Keywords
directory in, optional boolean	. If this keyword exists and filename was omitted, then the file chooser is launched allowing the user to select a directory, otherwise a single, regular file must be selected.
continuum in, optional boolean	. If this keyword exists then a continuum io_sdfits object will be returned. Otherwise (the default), a line io_sdfits object will be returned.
