Hi guys
I`m thinking of switching over to Linux to control all my equipment and possibly my processing too and wondering if anyone has managed to get ISIS running under Linux or any of the other spectro apps?.
I`d like to try IRAF when I have time but I`d like to carry on using ISIS,Rspec and the others if at all possible?
Thanks
Steve

Re: Spectroscopy with Linux?
Hi guys
After a lot of trying and failing I`ve managed to get ISIS running under Linux by using a combination of Wine and Mono runtime!. I can load images into ISIS via the `Open` button but clicking on the `Display` button I just get file not found and also when trying to get ISIS to process anything??. I suspect its something to do with the format of the working directory path. If I try some spectra taken for example on a Monday then running ISIS in Windows I would put the working directory path as eg c:\ISIS\Monday but under Linux this would become for example /home/steve/ISIS/Monday so before I abandon the idea altogether anyone any ideas how to get ISIS to use the Linux working directory path format please?
Thanks
