Acquiring the Program

The IDL software to view the VIS images in the CDF can be retrieved via the world wide web from http://eiger.physics.uiowa.edu/~vis/software/. You will need to unzip the file using appropriate software for your operating system. This will produce the two files named xvis.pro and flatfield.dat. The xvis.pro file is an IDL source code file while the flatfield.dat file is an IDL binary file created using the IDL SAVE procedure. The software has been extensively tested on an SGI 02 running IRIX 6.3 and on a DEC Alpha running OpenVMS v6.2. The program has been written to avoid system dependencies but has not been tested on a wide variety of platforms. If you have difficulties with execution please contact me at Rae-Dvorsky@UIowa.edu.
