Hi, I am happy to see the new release going public. It seems to contain lots of useful new features and fixes. After installing the November 2008 Lehuakona release of starlink on my Mac OS X 10.5.5 system (intel), I get an error upon trying to open a spectrum in Splat. It is _very_ similar to the problem I reported some months ago in the previous release. The error message is: """ uk.ac.starlink.splat.util.SplatException: Spectrum '/Users/MHD/data/SLS/highfreqdata/dataproducts/central4avspec_2500ms.sdf' has an unknown type, format or name syntax(guessed: NDF ) at uk.ac.starlink.splat.data.SpecDataFactory.throwReport(SpecDataFactory.java:546) at uk.ac.starlink.splat.data.SpecDataFactory.get(SpecDataFactory.java:347) at uk.ac.starlink.splat.data.SpecDataFactory.get(SpecDataFactory.java:222) at uk.ac.starlink.splat.iface.SplatBrowser.tryAddSpectrum(SplatBrowser.java:1933) at uk.ac.starlink.splat.iface.SpectrumIO.addSpectra(SpectrumIO.java:312) at uk.ac.starlink.splat.iface.SpectrumIO$2.run(SpectrumIO.java:261) """ Back then, Peter Draper managed to fix it, see his message of March 10th below. But this was aimed at the previous Humu release. Would it hurt to unpack Peter's fix and put the files in the /star/starjava/lib/i386/ directory of the new Lehuakona install?
