Skycat Programmer's Manual

The skycat techical documentation, like the application itself, is divided into five parts. Skycat is based on the Real-Time display and Catalog Library packages, which are in turn based on two utility packages: one general purpose and one for astronomy related utilities.

The skycat documentation is available in FrameMaker, PDF, postscript, and HTML formats from the skycat ftp dir.

The HTML versions below were generated from the FrameMaker docs:

Skycat - Combines the rtd image display features with catalog searching features for the skycat application

Catlib - Astronomical catalog library and widgets for searching catalogs and browsing catalog directories

RTD - Real-time image display widget and application

Astrotcl - A collection of Tcl and C++ classes for astronomical software (image I/O, compression, world coordinates)

Tclutil - A General purpose Tcl and C++ utility classes and widgets
