I came across a couple of image viewers with some impressive processing
features. These are freeware. IrFanView and XnView are available
through http://www.tucows.com - under Win95/98 image viewers. XnView
has FITS support which makes it nice. I now use these with ECU to view
images of objects. The nice thing about XnView is that I dont have to
convert my ccd images which are in FITS format.
BTW, in PictorView user set up, there is a choice between FITS version
1.1 and 1.2. What are others using? Im off to the FITS office to read
up on this, but what are the differences to PictorView?
