The XPA messaging system provides seamless communication between many kinds of Unix programs, including X programs and Tcl/Tk programs. It also provides an easy way for users to communicate with these XPA-enabled programs by executing XPA client commands in the shell or by utilizing such commands in scripts. Because XPA works both at the programming level and the shell level, it is a powerful tool for unifying any analysis environment: users and programmers have great flexibility in choosing the best level or levels at which to access XPA services, and client access can be extended or modified easily at any time.

This package contains the Tcl interface.

SAOTk is an integrated set of Tcl/Tk canvas widgets for astronomical imaging and data visualization. The widget set is composed of the Frame, Panner, Magnifier, and Colorbar widgets. In addition to classical support for imaging FITS data, manipulating colormaps, region marking, coordinate readout (including WCS), etc, SAOTk widgets also support arbitrary image scaling and rotation, advanced postscript printing, Truecolor graphic support, and image mosaics.

The SAOTk widgets are being used in a wide variety of astronomical applications. These applications include general visualization and analysis, real-time instrumentation and calibration, and interactive modeling. These Tcl extensions can be utilized in any standard Tcl/Tk environment to build custom data analysis and visualization applications.
