uFits shows FITS files in Finder: Quick Look previews (select a file, press Space) and
thumbnails for images, cubes, tile-compressed .fz files, spectra, light curves, catalogs
and tables, with every header.

Install with one command in Terminal:

curl -fsSL https://github.com/lmytime/uFits/releases/download/v0.0.2/install.sh | sh

It downloads the disk image below, checks its SHA-256, copies uFits to Applications and
turns on its Quick Look extensions. Then select a FITS file in Finder and press Space.
To remove uFits, run the same command with sh -s -- --uninstall at the end.

Or by hand: open the disk image and drag uFits onto Applications. The app is not
notarized, so macOS blocks it at first: run
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/uFits.app, or open uFits and click
Open Anyway under System Settings › Privacy & Security. Then open uFits once to
register its Quick Look extensions.

Universal (Apple silicon and Intel), macOS 11 or later.
