More problems, but different ones.
Today part of the day was used to solve some "medical" problems.The other part was used to install SKYCAT on UBUNTU, what turned out to be a nightmare!!! I need skycat to work, but in this moment to use FIMS. Since FIMS doesn't run on MacOSX, the masks will be prepared in Linux ... at the end, after a lot of struggle, including some "library rename" that Ubuntu did, I managed.
The hint is install tcl and tk devel and install ALL the other packages that come in the tcltk tarball you download from ESO website. I had to install them one by one since the installation script fails for some weird reason ... then you configure and compile SKYCAT.
At the end an old "stand alone" version of skycat comes with FIMS :-/ But skycat is necessary anyway also to prepare the masks. Working with skycat/FIMS and an additional skycat helps a lot in the mask preparation since you have access to the objects catalogue without including slits :-)
Now I can prepare the masks ...
