Description (last modified by )
CARMA miriad has a csh script to allow display of miriad data in the DS9 image viewer.
The reason for this is to allow display of images on a 24-bit X screen; xmtv cannot use this visual.
It seems it should not be too difficult to add this to miriad, though the list of dependencies looks ugly.

First dependency is something called bswap from the NEMO package. This appears to be needed for use under Linux.
The manpage says it's a byte-swapper. Sigh. This can be reimplemented as an addition to miriad.
Next is xpaset, xpaget, part of xpatools, also available on the DS9 page
The script creates a .wcs file for the viewer and pipes the image section into xpaset.
It seems a lot simpler to just add support for the miriad image type to DS9.

Unfortunately none of this helps with display of uv data - mirds9 doesn't display such data either.
