This is the first time I try to do photometry using IRAF. I want to make a catalog for my standard stars. I am using the package mkcatalog.

I finished entering the name of the columns and their width. I enter ^Z and ^D to terminate entry mode however I am receiving the following message:

PHP Formatted Code
^D is not a legal column name - skipping

PHP Formatted Code
^Z is not a legal column name - skipping


Is there any other way to terminate entry mode?

Thanks in advance

The EOF is only usually Ctrl-Z or Ctrl-D but it can be set to anything. IRAF is looking for the EOF control code not a specific character, and this is determined by the terminal you are using. Outside of IRAF you can issue the command "stty -a" to see your current terminal settings, you should see something like


cchars: discard = ^O; dsusp = ^Y; eof = ^D; eol = ;


where the 'eof' char is set to ^D, yours may be different.
