Hi!

I am announcing a first public release of satlas!

Satlas is an electronic atlas of the solar sprectrum and targeted
primaraly for astronomers who do a lot of spectral analysis work.
It is based on Gtk+ and MySQL. MySQL is used to store, manage and
provide a quick access to the data, while Gtk+ is provides GUI.

Some functionality of satlas can be also access through the command
line.

*Features* of satlas v0.95:

	- Display and browse solar spectrum in a specified wavelength
	  range.
	- Display data on the individual lines in the spectrum.
	- Using more detailed atomic information (not for all lines),
	  such as oscillator strengths, excitation and ionization
	  potentials, etc., generate inputs for WIDTH9, a numerical
	  code written to calculate chemical element abundances.
	  
More detailed information and the source code along with the data can
be access from:

		  http://www.physics.unc.edu/~serge/satlas/
		  
Snapshots are also provided! :-)))

Satlas is distributed under GNU Public License.

Any questions, comments, blames and suggestions are welcomed. Send
them tp serge@astro.unc.edu.
