$catalog = Astro::Catalog::IO::Simple->_read_catalog(\@lines); $lines = Astro::Catalog::IO::Simple->_write_catalog($catalog); Astro::Catalog::IO::Simple->_default_file();
Performs simple IO, reading or writing "id_string hh mm ss.s +dd mm ss.s" formated strings for each Astro::Catalog::Item object in the catalog.

ID HH MM SS.SS +/-DD MM SS.SS TYPE # Comment
will be matched. A space is allowed between the sign and the declination. The type is optional (as is the comment) and can be one of J2000, B1950, GALACTIC, AZEL or SUPERGALACTIC or the JCMT abbreviations (RJ, RB, GA or AZ). If TYPE is not present J2000 is assumed.
