High-level procedures allow IRAF or FITS images to be +displayed simply, other routines permit access to all other server functions +(e.g. cursor and image readback, frame selection, etc). The library also +features a number of functions for doing image overlay graphics; supported +graphics primitives include numerous point shapes, lines, circles, ellipses, +polygons, annular shapes, and text. + + This package is made up of several interfaces, specifically + + CDL - high-level image display and graphics overlay + IMD - mid-level image display routines + COMM - server communications (currently IIS) + +See the Notes file or Reference Guide in the doc subdirectory for more +information. + + Source for the library itself is in this directory. Documentation +is in the 'doc' subdirectory and demonstration applications can be found in +the 'examples' subdirectory. The 'test' subdirectory contains debugging +programs used during development; they're not really good examples of +programming practice but may serve as demos of how individual functions +can be called. + + See the RELEASE.NOTES file in this directory, or the Reference +Guide in the 'doc' subdirectory for information on using and installing +this library. |
