I am unable to get IRAF to run, when I type in ./cl from my home directory I get the following result:Last login: Thu Jul 26 09:09:04 on console

Chris-Lords-Computer:/usr/local/bin chrislord$ can anyone make a helpful recommendation?Chris Lord

See the Downloads page (https://iraf.net/downloads), I've just added 10.3 binaries for the v2.13 release. For v2.12 or earlier you'll need to get them from the iraf.noao.edu archive. If you installed from Marcos' package installer you should probably still update the binaries manually.-Mike

Yeah, I suggested Chris grab the binaries from /pub/fitz or wherever the other thread indicated that they solved the libncurses problem. However, even those binaries did not seem to solve it. Presumably the download page ones are different?So, perhaps I could make a separate installer for PPC 10.3 and PPC 10.4. I don't have access to a Panther system, but it's easy enough to package the binaries together, even if I can't test them.I get surprisingly few complaints about IRAF not working on Panther so I speculate most people are on Intel systems or using Tiger on PPC. Let's see.. so in June of what look like 227 downloads of the installers for IRAF 2.13... only 43 were of the PPC version, of those... only 2 are clearly identifiable as Safari running on Panther.
