 *  * A new program "COMPLEX" was added to manipulate complex NDFs, e.g. to extract the real and imaginary parts, compute the modulus and argument or to combine these parts into a new complex NDF.

Starlink Software Collection — 2021A Release Notes

Highlights

  • The new HDS-V5 data format (which uses HDF5) is now available. In this release the default will be to write all files as HDS-V4, unless the environmental variable HDS_VERSION is set to 5. This is described in Jenness 2015 2015A&C....12..221 . We are planning to make this file format the default starting with our next release, so we would please request any issues or comments be sent on to us: either on the Starlink users' mailing list, the Starlink developers' mailing list, or sent directly to EAO with the helpdesk AT eaobservatory.org email address.

  • Perl updated to Version 5.32.0.
