New User's Guide for Mountain Computers (1Jun93)
(from KPNO, NOAO Newsletter No. 34, 1 June 1993)

A new guide to the Sun computers on the mountain, "Using the Mountain
Computers on Kitt Peak," is now available from the Kitt Peak Support Office
or by anonymous ftp from "orion.tuc.noao.edu" (140.252.1.22), from the
subdirectory kpno/manuals.  In outlining the philosophy of computer use on the
mountain for data acquisition and quick look data reduction, this manual
presents those aspects of unix and IRAF which are unique to Sun workstations
and the window environment. It also serves as a reference for the most
commonly used commands in unix and IRAF, including the IRAF Control Environment
(ICE), and common reduction procedures.
