| Abstract: |
In the case of files of images, spectra, and object catalogs, there are lots of formatting, mapping, and translation problems that can be solved with reliable software that relatively few people can write. The RVSAO package of spectral tools that include redshifts in IRAF SPP and WCSTools package of image and world coordinate system tools in C have been in use for such tasks since 1989 and 1994 respectively. It has come time to remove the dependency of RVSAO on a local installation of the much larger IRAF system. The programming and user interface questions to be dealt with in that translation to RVTools are discussed. |
