Thanks for putting that online

I'm away at the moment so I don't have access to the script, the xgterm which was wgetted from DCU can be instead replaced with

wget http://iraf.net/ftp/pub/xgterm.LNUX.STATIC

mv ./xgterm.LNUX.STATIC /usr/local/bin/xgterm

chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/xgterm

The main body of the iraf2.c script is

#Package download and unpacking

cd /home/iraf

cat as.pcix.gen.gz | zcat | tar -xpf -

cd /home/irafbin/bin.redhat

cat ib.rhux.x86.gz | zcat | tar -xpf -

cd /home/irafbin/noao.bin.redhat

cat nb.rhux.x86.gz | zcat | tar -xpf -

#Trial Install

setenv iraf /home/iraf/

cd /home/iraf/unix/hlib

source irafuser.csh

./install -n

exit

I'm currently working on tying my script into the iraf.net install script to produce a completely automatic script designed for Fedora

Regards,

Simon

I hope Simon doesn't mind, but I've put the script here temporarily
until a more permanent home can be found.

I notice in the script that a couple of things are wgetted from DCU, so
make sure you modify those lines before running :-)
