MSCRED and fitsutil
February 13th, 2007 by admin
MSCRED may complain that fitsutil isn’t found. That’s because the iraf.net included extern.pkg file is defining a lot of tasks that you may not have. Edit /iraf/iraf/unix/hlib/extern.pkg and remove the two lines defining fitsutil
reset fitsutil = /iraf/extern/fitsutil/
task fitsutil.pkg = fitsutil$fitsutil.cl
and you’ll be good to go. There are plenty of other extraneous lines you could delete or comment out as well.
