IRAF 2.15 and “:.snap eps” problem

Robert Janusz wrote on Jan 06, 2011

I run very successfully IRAF 2.15 but have a problem with ":.snap eps"

prow dev$pix 500
=gcur
# here on the plot window:
:.snap eps

and I get sgiNNNN.eps with no contents (0-length). This worked very well in the previous IRAF version.

Sorry for the post, there is already answer to the problem in the forum.

Just to let you know that the color postscript in stsdas and tables extern packages needs to have symbolic links to the "bin":

cd /iraf/iraf/extern/tables
ln -s bin bin.linux
cd ../stsdas
ln -s bin bin.linux

and then, on the plot

:.snap psidump

in cl

gflush

and in /tmp search for psidumpNNNNN.ps color PS.
