Hi Mike,
Your help is really valuable and I think what I have should be
correct now. I have a couple more placement questions, though. Where do
I unpack imtoolcmap.tar? I've got it in /home/iraf/irafbin for now.
Also, where do I put the x11 stuff? I've plopped the man page *.ps
files in $iraf/local/mandocs and cdlref.ps.gz, cdl.tar.gz,
x11iraf-v1.3.1-bin.redhat.tar.gz in $iraf/local/download. The rest of
the directory structure is:*/home/iraf:*

Thanks, again, for your help.

(in your case) and unpack all the files there. There will then be
a /home/iraf/x11iraf/install script you can execute to install the
stuff on your machine, accepting all the default paths should be fine.
The various *.ps.Z files are conveniences for printing, once installed
a "man ximtool" should print the man page on the screen.> The rest of the directory structure is:

you should be all set. You can delete the .gz file once you're done.> I've done the gunzip and tar -xvf of the as, ib, and nb stuff and

you've already done that so there's nothing to be done in that section.
Once everything is unpacked it's pretty much just a matter of running the
/home/iraf/iraf/unix/hlib/install script as described. Remember that your
"iraf root directory" is /home/iraf/iraf, when you run the install script
as 'root' you may need to first type 'csh' to start a C-shell so the
various source/setenv commands in the install guide will work.
Hope this helps, write back if you still have questions.Cheers,
