UNIX/IRAF Site Manager's Guide
UNIX/IRAF Site Manager's Guide
The procedure for installing or updating a UNIX/IRAF distribution is
documented in the IRAF Installation Guide
distributed with the
software. A custom installation guide is provided for each platform on
which IRAF is supported. In short, an IRAF tape, CD-ROM or network
distribution is obtained and installed according to the instructions. The
result is a full IRAF system, including both sources and executable binaries
for the architectures to be supported. The system will have been modified
to reflect the new IRAF root directory and should run, but will otherwise be
a generic IRAF distribution. To get the most out of an IRAF installation it
will be necessary to perform some of the additional steps outlined in the
remainder of this document.
