Re: IRAF install notes

Chris,

    Great work on the iraf installation instructions! I followed them, the only
problem that I encountered was that the "cl" command could not find the
../irafbin/bin.redhat directory properly for the step 8 listed below. (This is
something that I am sure that I do not have setup right)... The "cl" command
came up "ok" when I did a "cd" to the appropriate directory.

    Thanks again for putting this together it is a great help! The instructions
themselves (and perhaps a simple example or two) would make a great
"Tech. Note" as well.....
