corv: Compact Object Radial Velocities

this package contains routines to model the spectra of compact objects (e.g. white dwarfs and M-dwarfs), and estimate their radial velocities.

To install: pip install corv

NOTE: corv returns statistical errors only. There's an additional systematic error in the measurements from the choice of templates. corv RVs are generally good to ~12-18 km/s. Also, the montreal DA models don't work on this branch right now. Working on it!
