    Version 2.1

    -
      -
    1. 04.05.2002 fixed a problem with xpa contour load.
      2. -
    2. 04.22.2002 ds9 version 2.1 released to the public.
      3. -
    -

    Version 2.1b7

    -
      -
    1. 04.02.2002 upgrade to XPA 2.1.0e2. This fixes a problem -with -xpa and -linux/linuxppc.
      2. -
    2. 04.03.2002 fixed a problem with AST. plot.c, line 19463, -change parameter -'force' from 1 to 0 in call to 'CheckLabels'. Sometimes we were seeing -adj labels that where the same. This change makes sure that the labels -are 'reduced' if we have this condition.
      3. -
    3. 04.03.2002 ds9 will now automatically open as a bin table -fits extension -named EVENTS, STDEVT, and RAYEVENT.
      4. -
    4. 04.03.2002 when trying to find an image to open in relax -mode -(ie the -use did not specify an extension), ds9 will not find a valid image if -the -length of either axis is 0.
      5. -
    5. 04.03.2002 now check for Ghostscript version 6.50 or -higher -when invoking -Save As.
      6. -
    6. 04.03.2002 add help application preference. Users can now -choose between -Netscape and Mozilla as the prefered help application.
      7. -
    7. 04.04.2002 ds9 version 2.1b7 released to the public.
      8. -
    -

    Version 2.1b6

    -
      -
    1. 02.04.2002 upgraded to ast version 1.8.6. Modified ast to -use -sscanf() -for all platforms except Darwin. Darwin uses astSscanf(), which works -around -a problem with sscanf() on MacOSX, with format strings of the following -format: sscanf(str, " %s %n", foo, &nc).
      2. -
    2. 02.04.2002 changed fity++ primary_/head_ header -relationship. -primary_ -is only set if there is a primary header is available and different -from -head_.
      3. -
    3. 02.04.2002 wsc's are init'd with both the head_ and the -primary_ (if -available) to handle the case where wcs keywords are spread between hdu -nd primary headers in mulitiple extension files.
      4. -
    4. 02.06.2002 all xpa commands are now 'catch{}' to invoke a -procedure -that will unwind the watch cursor stack. Hopefully, no more stuck watch -cursors.
      5. -
    5. 02.07.2002 add color and width parameters -to -contours -paste command. defaults are green and 1
      6. -
    6. 02.08.2002 fixed a problem with the FRAME menu. It was -cutting off -the last separator.
      7. -
    7. 02.12.2002 AST grid still does not support ICRS properly. -When a user -sets the coordinate system to ICRS, the actually parameters sent to the -AST grid code is FK5
      8. -
    8. 02.13.2002 for XPA points array, fits, regions, and wcs -(fillbuf=false), -manually flush the buffer at the end to make sure no data is left
      9. -
    9. 02.13.2002 ecliptic coords from wcssubs corrected by new -version of -wcs/wcscon.c
      10. -
    10. 02.13.2002 AST grids, corrected the MDJ-OBS keyword -generated -to generate -the correct EPOCH.
      11. -
    11. 02.13.2002 adjusted the EQUINOX value for ECLIPTIC coords -for -ast grids -to agree with wcssubs. Seems for ecliptic coords, wcssubs and ast use -two -slightly different interpretations of the EQUINOX value.
      12. -
    12. 02.13.2002 fixed a problem with histogram equalization -introduced in -version 2.1b5.
      13. -
    13. 02.14.2002 fixed a problem with titles in plot(stdin). We -now -take -the first line, and starting from the end, pick off the dimension, x -and -y axis titles, and the remainder is taken as the plot title. It can -contain -spaces and special characters such as '[]'
      14. -
    14. 02.14.2002 add 'Always create new plot' option to prefs
      15. -
    15. 02.14.2002 add multiple analysis plots, unless prefs are -unset
      16. -
    16. 02.14.2002 change default annulus and panda to 1 annuli
      17. -
    17. 02.14.2002 enable multiple array loads via blueplate -dialog
      18. -
    18. 02.14.2002 reset,append, and replace wcs now processes -OBJECT -keyword
      19. -
    19. 02.15.2002 fixed a problem with grid format of degrees. -Sometimes, -the incorrect format would be used. This was corrected by up'ng the -number -of digits displayed to d.3
      20. -
    20. 02.21.2002 upgraded to AST 1.8.7
      21. -
    21. 02.21.2002 upgraded to WCS 3.0.7
      22. -
    22. 02.22.2002 fixed a problem with Ascii Tables in fitsy++. -The -column -offset is now calculated from TBCOLn if present.
      23. -

      3. +
    3. 04.03.2002 ds9 will now automatically open as a bin + table + fits extension + named EVENTS, STDEVT, and RAYEVENT.

    +
      +
    1. 02.04.2002 upgraded to ast version 1.8.6. Modified ast + to + use + sscanf() + for all platforms except Darwin. Darwin uses astSscanf(), + which works + around + a problem with sscanf() on MacOSX, with format strings of + the following + format: sscanf(str, " %s %n", foo, &nc).
      2. +
    2. 02.04.2002 changed fity++ primary_/head_ header + relationship. + primary_ + is only set if there is a primary header is available and + different + from + head_.

    12. 02.13.2002 fixed a problem with histogram equalization + introduced in + version 2.1b5.
      13. +

      14. +
    14. 02.14.2002 add 'Always create new plot' option to + prefs

      18. -
    18. 05.14.2002 add support for TCROT and CDn_1 WCS keywords -in -FITS bin -tables.
      19. -

      6. +
    6. 01.28.2003 GUI: Add 'wm protocol . WM_DELETE_WINDOW + QuitDS9' for main window so that tcl/tk 8.4 does not segv + when a user + double clicks on a close window icon.

      +
      14. +
    14. 02.07.03 HTTP: loading images via url http processes the + image based on the http header mime type and encoding, not + the file + name. images loaded via url ftp are still processed based on + file name.
      15. +
    15. 02.07.03 PLOT: fixed a problem with global vars and the + plot widget.
      16. +
    16. 02.11.03 BINNING: fixed a bug with the bin table + smoothing + support. If the bin factor is large enough to bin the entire + image in + the bin buffer, ds9 would segv by trying to read out of + bounds.

      31. +
    31. 04.23.03 HST WFPC: Mosaic images must be loaded + directly. + this fixes a problem in that it was not possible to autodect + a WFPC2 + image in an incoming data stream, such as stdin.
      32. +
    32. 05.12.03 API: *** CHANGE *** Frame load syntax has + changed + to make it consistent across all modes and file formats. In + particular, + the general syntax is: <frame> load fits|array + <filename> + mmap|alloc|alloc gz|channel|shared|socket|var + <options>
      33. +
    33. 05.12.03 API: *** CHANGE *** shared memory loads no + longer + require the size of the memory segment.

      39. +
    39. 05.28.03 GUI: Fixed a problem with 'get cursor'. + Sometimes, + as with loading dss images, the + matrices were not updated in time, and 'get cursor' returned + bogus + values. Now all calls to 'get cursor' force an update.
      40. +
    40. 06.02.03 GUI: fixed several problems with examine mode
      41. +
    41. 06.02.03 ARCHIVE: add NOAO 4MASS and SIRTF and NOAO NSA + to + archive menu

      48. +
    48. 06.17.03 XPA: Fixed a problem with xpaget ds9 regions + [include|exclude|source|background].

      50. +
    50. 06.18.03 WCS: fix a problem with determining the + rotation + of a wcs coordinate system. previously, CRPIX was used as + the start + point. This does not work in cases where the tangent point + is very far + off the image. Instead, (1,1) is used.
      51. +

-

In 1990, Mike Van Hilst, at the Smithsonian Astrophysical -Observatory, Center for Astrophysics, Harvard University, developed -SAOImage. SAOImage was first implemented in X10, then reimplemented in -X11. In fact, it was one of the first X11 based applications publicly -made available. SAOImage was a brilliant program, implementing -techniques in scientific visualization 20 years ago that are still -being used by today's applications. Since Mike's departure from SAO, -SAOImage has been maintained by Doug Mink.

-

In the mid 1990's, with the administrative support of Steve -Murray, Eric Mandel developed SAOtng, or -(SAOImage, The Next Generation), named after the Star Trek series. TNG -was based on IRAF's XIMTOOL graphics libraries and Tcl. It explored new -GUI interfaces and supported a new external analysis interface. In -particular, it utilized XPA, (X11 Public Access, also written by Eric) -which allowed TNG to be scripted via a shell, or from other application.

-

In 1998, while working with Eric, William Joye began a complete -rewrite of TNG, based on the experience developed while supporting TNG. -This project was funded by the NASA Applied Information Systems -Research Program, under the title "Future Directions for Astronomical -Image Display". For lack of a name, the new project was referred to as -DS9, the logical extension of the Star Trek series. The name continues -to be in use. Current funding is provided by the NASA High Energy -Astrophysics Science Archive Center and the Chandra X-ray Science -Center.
-

-

DS9 is a Tcl/Tk application. The GUI is implemented as a very thin -layer of Tk. A number of Tk Canvas widgets in C++ were created to -support all the functionality needed. Basically, all the real work is -done in C++. DS9 inherited TNG's support of regions, XPA, external -analysis support, and the general GUI. However, all the visualization -techniques come directly from SAOImage.

-

The current version of DS9 is composed of the Tk widgets created -along with support from about 20 other open source products (including -Tcl/Tk, AST, BLT, HCompress, HTMLWidget, plio, rics, tcllib, tclxml, -tkcon, tkimg, tktable, wcssubs, xmlrpc, XPA, zip, zlib, and zvfs). The -distributed binaries consist of a self-contained self-extracting -archive and application, which provides an independent Tcl/Tk -environment without installation.

-

The first versions of SAOImage DS9 were made available in 1999. -Since then, the popularity of DS9 has grown far beyond expectations.
