Would it be possible to modify the ds9.desktop file in this way so that ds9 can be used to open FITS files? Thanks

Updated -- note that 32-bit support was removed upstream.

DS9 hasn't updated their linux binary folders yet -- will update when those are available. See here: http://ds9.si.edu/download/linux64/

Thanks! I've added the icon. Please let me know if there are any issues.

Well I think a desktop file without a image seems to be strange... Here I got an icon for you: https://img.vim-cn.com/0d/1b655ba190ac4067ddd7efb95cec023754f3af.png install it in the ${pkgdir}/usr/share/pixmaps and add the "Icon=ds9" line in ds9.desktop may give a good performance. Also it might be a good idea to add Astronomy and Education in the "Categories" part of ds9.desktop.

Added a ds9.desktop file. Let me know if there are any issues.

Would it be possible to add a .desktop file in /usr/share/applications? I had to create one so ds9 would how up in "select application" dialogs from firefox, nautilus, etc.

7.2 up. Tested on x86_64.

clu commented on 2012-07-10 15:59 (UTC)
