[daip] COMPUTER QUESTION ABOUT AIPS

[slipnick at brandeis.edu]

Dear NRAO rep, 

 My name is Scott Lipnick, and I am student at Brandeis University, and work
in 
 the Radio Astronomy Group.  I recently bought a macintosh computer and began

 to use the terminal on it so that I can ssh into the computers at work. 
 Everything works well except when I use difmap and aips, I do not know how to

 view the images.  I am wondering if you know of a program that I can get so 
 that I can do these tasks.  The way we have been doing it at the lab is that

 we type mapl to prompt the map and then when it requests a viewer I put /xs.



 I am wondering also if when I am in the terminal if I can just write gv and 
 some file and then my computer will open that file with ghost view,
eventhough 
 I am working through the computer at the lab. 

 Thanks a lot for all of your help, 
 Scott Lipnick
