What is the status of XGterm and XImtool?
The X11IRAF project is being developed independently of the normal IRAF system development. They are X based tools for support of vector graphics and image display, the long awaited replacements for Xterm and SAOimage. Versions of XGterm, XImtool and XTapemon are available in the /iraf/x11iraf directory on iraf.noao.edu. A new version was recently made available that contains many enhancements, especially to ximtool (e.g. hardcopy capability, image load/save, on-line help, etc). All tasks are now fully documented and easily buildable from source on all supported iraf platforms. A bug-fix release was made available in Aug 97, most users should upgrade to this version.
