Acquiring the Program

The IDL software to view the VIS images in the CDF can be retrieved via the world wide web from http://vis.physics.uiowa.edu/vis/software/release. You will need to unzip the file using appropriate software for your operating system. This will produce the files xvis.pro - IDL source code, lv.dat - a binary data file, and five IDL binary files created using the IDL SAVE procedure: ecpsav.dat, ff4sav.dat, ff5sav.dat, fflrsav.dat, and lrpsav.dat. The software has been tested on an SGI 02 running IRIX 6.3 and on a DEC Alpha running OpenVMS v7.3-2, and on Windows 7. The program has been written to avoid system dependencies but has not been tested on a wide variety of platforms.
