Minor update of MSCRED

Frank Valdes wrote on Sep 15, 2000

A minor update of MSCRED has been placed in the distribution archive
on iraf.noao.edu.  The mirror sites will be updated in the next 24 hours.



V4.1: September 15, 2000
    This is a minor bug fix release only.   The  only  significant  bugs
    were  in  MSCTPEAK.  So the only reason to update is if you use this
    task.
    
    The other bug to be aware of is that  using  "*"  in  the  "extname"
    parameter  of  various  tasks  may  cause  the  task  to  hang.  The
    extension  name  parameter  is  for  pattern  matching  rather  than 
    filename  matching  and  "*"  means  to  match  zero  or more of the
    preceeding character; so what should be used is "?*".   The  pattern
    matching  all  extensions  in  MSCRED  is "".  A bug fix was made to
    treat the special case of "*" in the way many  users  expect,  which
    is  to  match  all  extensions names in the same way as "" currently
    does.
