SkipSkip - Skip irrelevant data?

Description:
This is a boolean attribute which indicates whether the ObjectObject data being read through a ChannelChannel are inter-mixed with other, irrelevant, external data.

If Skip is zero (the default), then the source of input data is expected to contain descriptions of AST Objects and comments and nothing else (if anything else is read, an error will result). If Skip is non-zero, then any non-Object data encountered between Objects will be ignored and simply skipped over in order to reach the next Object.

Type:
Integer (boolean).
Class Applicability:
Channel
All Channels have this attribute.

The FitsChan class sets the default value of this attribute to 1, so that all irrelevant FITS headers will normally be ignored.
