+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+The four routines \fB\f(BIFunParamGetb()\fB\fR, \fB\f(BIFunParamGeti()\fB\fR,
+\&\fB\f(BIFunParamGetd()\fB\fR, and \fB\f(BIFunParamGets()\fB\fR, return the value of
+a \s-1FITS\s0 header parameter as a boolean, int, double, and string,
+respectively. The string returned by \fB\f(BIFunParamGets()\fB\fR is a malloc'ed
+copy of the header value and should be freed when no longer needed.
+.PP
+The first argument is the Fun handle associated with the \s-1FITS\s0 header
+being accessed. Normally, the header is associated with the \s-1FITS\s0
+extension that you opened with \fB\f(BIFunOpen()\fB\fR. However, you can use
+\&\fIFunInfoPut()\fR to specify access of the primary header. In particular,
+if you set the \s-1FUN_PRIMARYHEADER\s0 parameter to 1, then the primary
+header is used for all parameter access until the value is reset to
+0. For example:
+.PP
+.Vb 9
+\& int val;
+\& FunParamGeti(fun, "NAXIS", 1, 0, &got); # current header
+\& val=1;
+\& FunInfoPut(fun, FUN_PRIMARYHEADER, &val, 0); # switch to ...
+\& FunParamGeti(fun, "NAXIS", 1, 0, &got); # ... primary header
+\& FunParamGeti(fun, "NAXIS", 2, 0, &got); # ... primary header
+\& val=0;
+\& FunInfoPut(fun, FUN_PRIMARYHEADER, &val, 0); # switch back to ...
+\& FunParamGeti(fun, "NAXIS", 2, 0, &got); # current header
+.Ve
+.PP
+Alternatively, you can use the \s-1FUN_PRIMARY\s0 macro to access parameters
+from the primary header on a per-parameter basis:
+.PP
+.Vb 2
+\& FunParamGeti(fun, "NAXIS1", 0, 0, &got); # current header
+\& FunParamGeti(FUN_PRIMARY(fun), "NAXIS1", 0, 0, &got); # primary header
+.Ve
+.PP
+\s-1NB - \s0 \s-1FUN_PRIMARY\s0 is deprecated.
+It makes use of a global parameter and therefore will not not
+appropriate for threaded applications, when we make funtools
+thread\-safe. We recommend use of \fIFunInfoPut()\fR to switch between the
+extension header and the primary header.
+.PP
+For output data, access to the primary header is only possible until
+the header is written out, which usually takes place when the first
+data are written.
+.PP
+The second argument is the name of the parameter to access. The third
+\&\fBn\fR argument, if non\-zero, is an integer that will be added as a
+suffix to the parameter name. This makes it easy to use a simple loop
+to process parameters having the same root name. For example, to
+gather up all values of \s-1TLMIN\s0 and \s-1TLMAX\s0 for each column in a binary
+table, you can use:
+.PP
+.Vb 4
+\& for(i=0, got=1; got; i++){
+\& fun->cols[i]->tlmin = (int)FunParamGeti(fun, "TLMIN", i+1, 0.0, &got);
+\& fun->cols[i]->tlmax = (int)FunParamGeti(fun, "TLMAX", i+1, 0.0, &got);
+\& }
+.Ve
+.PP
+The fourth \fBdefval\fR argument is the default value to return if
+the parameter does not exist. Note that the data type of this
+parameter is different for each specific \fIFunParamGet()\fR call. The final
+\&\fBgot\fR argument will be 0 if no param was found. Otherwise the
+data type of the parameter is returned as follows: \s-1FUN_PAR_UNKNOWN\s0
+('u'), \s-1FUN_PAR_COMMENT\s0 ('c'), \s-1FUN_PAR_LOGICAL\s0 ('l'), \s-1FUN_PAR_INTEGER\s0
+('i'), \s-1FUN_PAR_STRING\s0 ('s'), \s-1FUN_PAR_REAL\s0 ('r'), \s-1FUN_PAR_COMPLEX\s0 ('x').
+.PP
+These routines return the value of the header parameter, or the
+specified default value if the header parameter does not exist. The
+returned value is a malloc'ed string and should be freed when no
+longer needed.
+.PP
+By default, \fB\f(BIFunParamGets()\fB\fR returns the string value of the
+named parameter. However, you can use \fIFunInfoPut()\fR to retrieve the
+raw 80\-character \s-1FITS\s0 card instead. In particular, if you set the
+\&\s-1FUN_RAWPARAM\s0 parameter to 1, then card images will be returned by
+\&\fIFunParamGets()\fR until the value is reset to 0.
+.PP
+Alternatively, if the \s-1FUN_RAW\s0 macro is applied to the name, then the
+80\-character raw \s-1FITS\s0 card is returned instead.
+\s-1NB - \s0 \s-1FUN_RAW\s0 is deprecated.
+It makes use of a global parameter and therefore will not not
+appropriate for threaded applications, when we make funtools
+thread\-safe. We recommend use of \fIFunInfoPut()\fR to switch between the
+extension header and the primary header.
+.PP
+Note that in addition to the behaviors described above, the
+routine \fB\f(BIFunParamGets()\fB\fR will return the 80 raw characters of the
+\&\fBnth\fR \s-1FITS\s0 card (including the comment) if \fBname\fR is specified as
+\&\s-1NULL\s0 and \fBn\fR is positive. For example, to loop through all \s-1FITS\s0
+header cards in a given extension and print out the raw card, use:
+.PP
+.Vb 9
+\& for(i=1; ;i++){
+\& if( (s = FunParamGets(fun, NULL, i, NULL, &got)) ){
+\& fprintf(stdout, "%.80s\en", s);
+\& free(s);
+\& }
+\& else{
+\& break;
+\& }
+\& }
