Subject: smokey change for 5/30.


1.  Make modification to starcat2 related to smokey:

  1.1 '*' in catalog list now refer to stars inside smokey
      sky coverage area.

  1.2 Skymap now shows diagram of the smokey sky coverage boxes.
      You can toggle it off/on with the "ShowSmokey" checkbox.
      If you what "ShowSmokey" to be on by default, add this line
      to your ~/.starcat-init file:
         SkyMap.ShowSmokey on

  1.3 starcat 2 (May 30 2002) installed on all summit workstations.

2.  New link on the smokey web site.

     http://irtf.ifa.hawaii.edu/~smokey/software/ now has a
     Command Dictionary under User Documentation.

     We just started this, so it is only about 40% completed.
     But it has some good information about the motors.
     I think 'A' to 'F', and the XY stage information is OK.
     I still need to review and write 'G' to 'V'.

3. Smokey move to summit computer racks.

   From the Daycrew: Smokey pc moved to computer racks.
   The keyboard and display should be hooked up via the cybex.
   Daycrew did experience some problem with the keyboard input
   & the cybex, that will require more trouble shooting.
