Subject: SAOimage 1.26 and WCSTools 2.6 released
Newsgroups: sci.astro.fits
Sender: owner-fitsbits at kochab.cv.nrao.edu
Precedence: bulk

The latest release of the SAOimage astronomical image display
program is now available.  Version 1.26 implements incremental
changes and minor bug fixes.  Documentation and access information
is at

http://tdc-www.harvard.edu/software/saoimage/

WCSTools 1.26 is a suite of tools which manipulate astronomical
catalogs and utilize the world coordinate information in FITS and
IRAF image headers.  Support for the ACT catalog and catalog searches
from files of centers have been added, among other things.  It is
hoped that the next release will support the final FITS WCS standard.
