Display Problem on new IRAF install
Josh Walawender wrote on Apr 15, 2010
Hi,
I'm having an odd problem with the display function after installing IRAF (via SciSoft) on a new computer (running Mac OS X 10.6). IRAF seems to run okay, but when I display an image, I get a blank square and the pixel coordinate readout gives negative x pixel coordinate and the pixel value is <0. The images display fine when opened using File --> Open in ds9, the problem only occurs when trying to use the display command in IRAF.
Any thoughts?
thanks,
Josh

Oops, never mind. I found the problem. It was a typo in the login.cl file which set the stdimage to an apparently invalid number. Once that was fixed things began to work correctly.
